Deshaun Watson Releases Text Messages Showing Latest Sexual Misconduct Lawsuit Is False
Deshaun Watson has settled more than 20 lawsuits alleging sexual misconduct during massage therapy sessions. He doesn't seem to be inclined to settle the most recent one to be filed.
The attorney for Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson has fired back at the latest lawsuit against his client by filing several exhibits in court that appear to undermine the lawsuit's claims, including that Watson pressured the plaintiff into oral sex at a hotel in Houston in December 2020.
Rusty Hardin, the attorney, also is asking the court in Harris County, Texas, for monetary sanctions against the attorneys who filed it to punish them for filing this «sham lawsuit,» as he describes it. The suit was the 26th overall by a woman who has accused Watson of sexual misconduct during massage sessions.
Here is the report:
Watson's legal team feel like the text messages prove that the accuser was «desperate to have relations with Watson» and they were sent after the alleged incident at the Houston hotel.
«The documents (the woman) provided reflect that for nearly a year after their massage session together, (the woman) sent more than 35 messages to Mr. Watson-none of which were answered by Mr. Watson,» Hardin states.
