Junior Galette's Civil Lawsuit Case Dismissed: Latest Details and Comments

The civil suit against Washington linebacker Junior Galette was dismissed Monday, according to Mike Triplett of ESPN.

Per Triplett's report, the woman who was "alleging three years of sexual, physical and mental abuse" in her civil suit against Galette failed to further pursue the case. She had previously "accused Galette and his cousin of injuring her in a January incident that led to an arrest for domestic violence," though that case was also dismissed following an investigation.

"From day one, we were confident that the frivolous civil suit and meritless criminal case would be swiftly dismissed," Ralph Whalen, Galette's attorney, noted in a statement shared by Triplett.
