Big Ben accused of sexual assault

Yes you read correctly, Ben Roethlisberger from Super Bowl champ to accused rapist. According to ProFootballTalk via MSNBC, In the civil suit, which Cornwell confirms was served on Roethlisberger over the weekend and a copy of which our own Gregg Rosenthal has obtained, McNulty alleges that Roethlisberger asked her to come to his hotel room to fix the television, and that he thereafter forced her to have sex with him. Roethlisberger faces one civil count of assault, one civil count of sexual assault and battery, one civil count of false imprisonment, one civil count of false pretenses, one civil count of fraud, and one civil count of intentonal infliction of emtional distress. McNulty also claims that the coworkers named in the complaint thereafter defamed her by making allegedly false and inflammatory statements, and by allegedly serving as aiders and abettors of Roethlisberger's alleged misconduct after the fact. Now after reading this it feels like deja vu because well Kobe Bryant had a similar situation as we were all aware of difference here is that well Roethlisberger is single so he won't be considered an adulterer here at the very least and this is a civil suit not a criminal one. As his lawyer is stating here, "The timing of the lawsuit and the absence of a criminal complaint and a criminal investigation are the most compelling evidence of the absence of any criminal conduct," Cornwell said. "If an investigation is commenced, Ben will cooperate fully and Ben will be fully exonerated." It's unknown at this point whether McNulty ever has attempted to file criminal charges as a result of the incident, which allegedly occurred in July 2008. See July 2008? You wait one whole year after the fact to file a suit? I'm a woman and I would like to give other women the benefit of the doubt in these situations but if you were sexually assaulted I would want the person who did it to me behind bars as soon as possible. Not file a civil suit a year after the fact. Now I wasn't there so I don't know what happened but my gut tells me this is bogus and if I'm right women like this digust me and should be prosecuted for legalized extortion and ruining it for the real rape victims out there. If she is telling the truth well I hope Ben goes to jail. That being said its too soon to tell what is going on all I know is I'll be curious to see how this case will be covered compared to the Kobe one where it involved a black man and a white woman and how badly this affects Ben's reputation from here on out. And I'm sure someone is going to want to know Kobe's reaction to all this don't you?
