https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/45393231/zion-williamson-sued-allegations-rape-years-abuseThe accusations:
A woman has accused New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson of rape in addition to "sexual, physical, emotional and financial" abuse over the span of a multiyear relationship, according to a lawsuit submitted to Los Angeles Superior Court on Thursday.
The court filing details two alleged incidents of rape in 2020, the first taking place that September in Beverly Hills, California. According to the complaint, the woman told Williamson "she was tired and wanted to go to sleep" but Williamson told her she could not go to sleep without having sex with him. He then allegedly pinned her down with her hands behind her back and raped her. The filing added that Williamson threw the woman's phone across the room afterward and choked her.
A second rape allegedly occurred in October 2020, also in Beverly Hills. The woman says she was "violently raped" after expressing plans to visit a friend in San Diego. In both instances, the woman accused Williamson of taking her phone for "a period of time."
In addition to the rape allegations, the lawsuit details accusations of strangulation "with such force that she reasonably feared for her life and eventually lost consciousness multiple times." The woman also accuses Williamson of entering her apartment without consent and stealing her belongings.
The lawsuit accuses Williamson of "threatening to kill" the woman and her family members multiple times
Zion's lawyer's response:
The attorneys say that Williamson and the woman had a "consensual, casual relationship" that ended years ago and that "at no point during or immediately after that relationship did the plaintiff raise any concerns." They added that Williamson had reported the woman's "extortion attempts" to law enforcement and that he plans to file a counterclaim.

So he did all of this and she doesn’t go to the police but sues him? Okay. I’m skeptical.

Will generally be sceptical when these claims are made against high profile people, especially when it's 'years' later.
The damage this does to the accused without any evidence (yet) is always bad.

As a fan I hope he’s innocent.

Either reputation of Zion is the main reason behind this lawsuit, or his reputation actually undersells his weirdness.

A decade ago, I would probably think of this as a money grab but based on the fact that there have been so many high profile celebrities getting outted for all types of deviant behavior, I'm not going to make any assumptions 1 way or the other.

It sounds like they were in a relationship of some sort, a fling at least. This doesn't scream rape to me. It may be a case of him being inconsiderate, but that should be addressed privately. They're in a bedroom with a famous athlete, why do they think he's there?

Whether it’s true or not. Just another example of Zion just being a massive headache off the court. Dude can’t keep his name out of the headlines for negative ratings for more than 6 months.

“When you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything."
I'll let you guys figure out who said that.

If Zion did indeed go to the police over the extortion attempts as his lawyers claim, this should be closed swiftly and the accuser forced to face the consequences.

Sounds like some people don't understand what "consent" means.

If he's guilty throw the book at him but even if he's innocent, the dude is a well documented dumbass sex addict, my sympathies are unavailable at this time.

I'm going to need some police reports, videos, photos and/or medical transcripts from back when she claims this occurred.
It sounds like Zion plans to countersue for defamation. Unfortunately, for those who only read headlines, the damage to his reputation has already been done.
There was a MLB player not that long ago that had his career destroyed over what later came out to be false allegations as part of a plot to sue him civilly. I believe her own friend ultimately revealed the scam. Dirty, dirty stuff.

I always wonder how people decide civil vs criminal.

Bro what the hell??
Being “inconsiderate of their wishes” when those wishes are not to have sex with you, is literally what rape is?!!?
