Super Bowl Winner Ben Rothlisberger Sued for Sexual Assault


A woman claims Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger lured her into a hotel room, then sexually assaulted her, according to a new lawsuit. Andrea McNulty claims in her civil lawsuit filed in Washoe County, Nevada, this year's Super Bowl winner asked her to come to his hotel room in July, 2008 -- and then forced her to have sex with him. McNulty -- an employee at the Harrah's Hotel in Lake Tahoe -- is suing for sexual assault and battery, false imprisonment and infliction of emotional distress.

Ben denies all of McNulty's allegations. Roethlisberger's lawyer told ProFootballTalk.com, "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." Roethlisberger was in Nevada at the time of the alleged incident for a celebrity golf tournament. [TMZ]

UPDATE:
Sources connected to the Ben Roethlisberger sexual assault case claim the psychiatric care the accuser says she's under has nothing to do with Ben .... it has to do with a relationship she had with a man who never existed.

  1. she has no proof that they ever had intercourse without a rape kit, no police report at or near the date of the crime.if she was raped or assaulted then she should have at least consulted the police before anyother person. not her management at her job , come on. i could just as easily say i was attacked by paris hilton,without dna or physical evidence there is no proof. just a typical extortionist in my book, looking for the easy way out of a dead end casino job.
