What’s up with Hall of Famer Miichael Irvin who seemed to have righted himself? He had made a great Canton speech, but now he’s been accused of rape.
Irvin does a radio show in Dallas for ESPN and also works for the NFL network. Last week he was in Miami doing telecast for the NFL Network of Pro Bowl practices from his high school in suburban Miami.
Chances are we won’t see much of him at the Super Bowl because of this controversy.
The young lady who is making the charges has accused Irvin of doing some crazy stuff. This is how it read in the Miami Herald.
“In the suit, the woman said Irvin bought her alcohol to get her drunk, then lured her to his hotel room.
That’s where he and another man tried stuffing money into her clothes, the suit said.
She said Irvin and the other man insisted on sexual favors. She said no.
That’s when the unidentified man held her down and covered her mouth, according to the suit, and then Irvin raped her, she said. When Irvin was done, the other man forced her to perform oral sex.
Afterward, Irvin’s brother, Derrick Irvin, came in and took her to another room and “assisted in covering the sexual assault and rape up,” according to the civil lawsuit.”
This is some crazy sounding freaky stuff.
From what I understand, there have been some negotiations going on involving a financial settlement.
