ALAMEDA — The woman who accused Raiders cornerback Gareon Conley of sexual assault a year ago has filed a lawsuit claiming mental and physical damage, according to a TMZ report.
Conley was never arrested or charged with a crime and in statements denied any wrongdoing. Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie and coach Jack Del Rio stood behind Conley and said Conley was vindicated after the Cuyahoga county prosecutor’s office returned a “no bill on all possible charges.”
A first-round draft pick out of Ohio State, Conley would be subject to compensatory and punitive damages for “sustained serious physical, psychological, emotional and mental injuries” if the lawsuit were successful.
