The police reopened the Kathryn Mayorga, who is said to have been attacked by football star Cristiano Ronaldo in 2009, told TODAY Sports USA on Monday a spokesman for the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police.
Last week, Mayorga had filed a lawsuit, alleging that Ronaldo had attacked her at the Palms Hotel and Casino on June 13, 2009. The mayor said in the lawsuit that she had reported the alleged incident to the Las Vegas police later in the day, but had finally decided not to name the suspect nor to pursue the charges. .
Last month, Mayorga asked the police to reopen the case, according to Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department spokesman Aden Ocampo. Ocampo said neither the mayor nor his representatives had designated Ronaldo as a suspect, although the department has launched an investigation which, he said, was "open" from Monday.
In addition to reporting the alleged assault on June 13, 2009, Mayorga was subjected to a sexual abuse review at a local hospital, according to the lawsuit.
Ocampo said that the department still has the rape kit for the exam, which was not processed at that time because Mayorga did not want to ask for charges. DNA can still be extracted from the kit, said Ocampo.
Leslie Mark Stovall, Mayorga's attorney representative, said the allegations "are not" false information "" in a statement to USA TODAY Sports and other media in response to the call from Ronaldo in an Instagram post last weekend.
When questioned, a spokesman for Ronaldo sent the same statement to USA TODAY Sports which was sent to the German magazine. Der Spiegel, Who for the first time reported the allegations before the filing of the complaint. In the statement, the spokesman described the reports as illegally illegal.
"I was asked to comment on Cristiano Ronaldo's recent statement that Mayorga's claims are" false news, "Stovall said in his statement. "The complaint lodged by Ms. Mayorga, the material evidence of her sexual assault, the written answers to questions regarding the sexual assault attributed to Cristiano Ronaldo, the communications and conduct of the" team "representing Cristiano Ronaldo, the circumstances surrounding the alleged settlement and non-disclosure agreement, as well as Ms. Mayorga's psychological injuries, are not false news. & # 39; "
Mayorga, now 34, has agreed to a $ 375,000 settlement that "asserted that the Settlement and Confidentiality Agreement was intended to prevent the Complainant, her family, friends and her lawyer from talk to anyone, including the police, about sexual assault "at the trial.
Mayorga detailed the alleged incident in a lawsuit filed Friday in front of Clark County Court, allegedly held in a penthouse suite inside the Palms Hotel and Casino. She alleged in the lawsuit that Ronaldo had entered the bathroom and pulled her into the room where the attack had taken place.
"Cristiano Ronaldo turned the complainant on her side and shouted" no, no, no, "according to the civil suit.
Mayorga testified that in the trial she was sodomized by Ronaldo, which resulted in "serious emotional and bodily injury, including anal bruising, post-traumatic stress disorder and major depression".
Stovall said in his press release on Monday that his client was seeking a criminal investigation and had filed a lawsuit to "seek justice by holding Cristiano Ronaldo accountable for his conduct" and to "prevent anything that happened to him from happening. produce for other women ".
