Day 1 Prospect Sexual Assault
Allegedly the Cleveland Police are stalling on this case:
CLEVELAND, OH (WOIO) - There have been numerous conversations at Cleveland 19 News about the report you are about to read. There's a lot at stake. It involves a young woman who said she was sexually assaulted, a young man who is about to start his NFL career, and a team who may be taking a huge risk drafting a player who's under investigation right here in Cleveland. Police radio traffic coming from downtown Cleveland's Westin Hotel after 3 a.m. Sunday, April 9 sheds light on the moment officers arrived on scene: "Officers on scene, no call back -- 23-year-old female conscious and breathing, victim of a sexual assault." The accused is a college football player who is expected to be taken in the first round of Thursday's NFL Draft. We are not naming the player because we're waiting for the police report. And we want to be very clear he has not been officially charged with a crime at this point. By phone, investigative producer Cassie Nist spoke to the player's attorney, Kevin Spellacy, who said he is representing the player in this matter, but said the accusations are "ludicrous and ridiculous." "In my opinion this young lady is an opportunist and it's actually despicable," said Spellacy. The player's attorney says it all started at the Barley House on West 6th Street, when a group left there to go to the Westin for a hotel room party. He said his client was never alone with the alleged victim, and he has three witnesses who said he did nothing wrong. When police arrived at the Westin, the player had already left. The attorney said he is willing to bring his client in to be interviewed by police, but not right away. He has made arrangements for the interview to be held right after the NFL Draft. There is a lot at stake. It's just days before the draft and one of the top picks has his name on paperwork somewhere on a Cleveland detective's desk. We'd like to see that paperwork. Normally we can. But for some reason we -- the media -- are being held up. |

When did this become a thing? This is really unacceptable unless he's projected to go to the Broncos, the Patriots or the Steelers.

Seems to me the appropriate way to do this, is either wait till all the evidence is out therr and report it then, or don't do it at all.
This seems half asset to me |

Half-assed is how they roll. Once the AP started getting stumped by obvious click-bait, it was all over.

The desire to be first well outweighs the desire to be accurate. That's how we get shit like this.

We aren't in DC so I'll refrain from going further down the rabbit hole, but sports is the least of our worries when it comes to this shit. Mass-market media has become completely goddamn worthless.

It was at a Cleveland hotel? I'm guessing said player was there to visit the browns?

They are basically egging on people to try and figure out who the player is....and then they'll be outed. But it won't be their fault!
