ORCHARD PARK, NY – Delicia Cordon, Buffalo Bills' ex-girlfriend LeSean McCoy, will hold a press conference Friday in Georgia to explain why she is convinced that McCoy was involved in a home invasion on July 10th. her.
Cordon's lawyers announced Thursday it would offer a $ 20,000 reward for any information leading to the arrest of the intruder in a McCoy-owned house outside Atlanta, where Cordon was living at the time. .
"Although Mr. McCoy maintains that he was very open with his teammates and coaches, he did not provide any information to the Milton Town Police, or assist in any way with the investigation. criminal, which will be discussed at [Friday’s] press conference too, "said his lawyers.
Sources told Adam Schefter of ESPN earlier this month that Milton police were investigating the armed robbery and aggravated assault on Cordon, but have not discovered anything yet. either accusing McCoy. The NFL's investigation of the incident remained under "active scrutiny," a source told Schefter, who added that "this can not be used yet."
Cordon filed a civil suit in Fulton County against McCoy and his former University of Pittsburgh teammate Tamarcus Porter in August, claiming he must be financially liable for allowing the attack to happen at home.
The lawsuit also alleged the aggressor "indicated [to Cordon] that he knew McCoy. "After the attack, Cordon told a 911 dispatcher that she suspected McCoy" of having it set up "because he had previously asked her to return jewelry to her that had been stolen from him during the invasion.
"There is no presumed link between the assailant and Mr. McCoy or Mr. Porter," McCoy's lawyers wrote last week in a motion to dismiss the complaint. "The complaint is ridiculous and must be rejected."
Cordon's lawsuit also alleged that McCoy physically abused his son and dog. Stephanie Maisonet, McCoy's 6-year-old mother, filed an affidavit in the case Tuesday, backing Cordon's claim that McCoy abused her son.
"Similar allegations of physical abuse and aggressive behavior by Mr. McCoy have also been alleged by other women, including his son's mother," Cordon's lawyers said Thursday.
The NFL did not respond to a request for comment on Tuesday regarding Maisonet's affidavit.
Last week, McCoy's lawyers filed a motion to strike Cordon's complaints about child abuse, while denying the allegations.
"There is a scary ratio of irrelevant, uncontrollable and incendiary allegations to allegations that are supposed to support causes of action," their motion said. "The only reason the plaintiff has included the salacious allegations is to question Mr. McCoy's character – with the court and in the press."
McCoy issued a statement Tuesday citing statements made in Maisonet's affidavit as "patently false" and "outrageously inaccurate".
He continued to defend himself on Wednesday.
"It's ridiculous," he said. "I love my son, everyone who knows me or has seen my son around know what kind of relationship we have … But we are in the courts with everything. will happen."
In an article posted on Instagram on Tuesday, Maisonet said McCoy's son had told him he had seen McCoy hitting his ex-girlfriend in the face twice. This allegation was not included in Maisonet's affidavit.
"In this world, with social media, you can say whatever you want," McCoy said Wednesday. "The cameras and everyone will take it and run with it, I can not control that, the only thing I can control is being a grandfather and being the person [I] potentially grown to be. That's all I can do. "
Coach Sean McDermott said on Wednesday that the team's position regarding the current legal situation of the running back had not changed and that he was hoping McCoy would play Sunday.
"We have got the information we need at this stage," McDermott said. "There's no crystal ball, nobody has a crystal ball, we'll just take it one day at a time."
