According to Talal Ansari of BuzzFeed, Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Jameis Winston is under investigation by the NFL for an allegation that he groped an Uber driver in 2016. The Uber driver identified as Kate said Winston touched her crotch early on the morning of March 13, 2016 during an Uber ride. Winston released this statement...

quote:
Winston released a statement regarding the allegations:

"A news organization has published a story about me regarding an alleged incident involving a female Uber driver from approximately two years ago. The story falsely accuses me of making inappropriate contact with this driver. I believe the driver was confused as to the number of passengers in the car and who was sitting next to her. The accusation is false, and given the nature of the allegation and increased awareness and consideration of these types of matters, I am addressing this false report immediately. At the time of the alleged incident, I denied the allegations to Uber, yet they still decided to suspend my account.

I am supportive of the national movement to raise awareness and develop better responses to the concerns of parties who find themselves in these types of situations, but this accusation is false. While I am certain that I did not make any inappropriate contact, I don’t want to engage in a battle with the driver and I regret if my demeanor or presence made her uncomfortable in any way."

Lazy attorneys - at least TRY to write something that sounds like your client wrote it. Geez.

He denies it - actually the best move. Hopefully more men will, and these women coming forward with zero evidence will be condemned.

Winston's lawyers wrote every word of that bs statement. It's obvious that Winston has a serious problem with physically assaulting and harassing women. I believe that woman at Florida State that accused him of sexually assaulting her. But this is a chicken excrement country ran by weak on crime chicken excrement people so nothing will be done to Winston I'm sure. In my world, women would be safe from being physically harmed by men in any way.

In his defense, she was kind of crabby. He has a fever...

I'm getting sick of all of this shite coming out two years after the fact. He isn't accused of rape, she is saying that he touched her inappropriately 2 fricking years ago. I hate this smug a-hole but I can't get on board with retroactively blaming someone of a passable moment years later.
