SAN JOSE — Lawyers for former football star Dana Stubblefield filed a motion Monday demanding that bail be set in their client’s rape case because new evidence has emerged to support his claim that he paid the woman for consensual sex.
The 34-year-old woman, whom prosecutors allege is intellectually disabled, testified during the preliminary hearing last month that the former linebacker for the 49er raped her at gunpoint nearly three years ago when she went to his Morgan Hill home seeking babysitting work. She denied under oath that she ever worked in the porn industry or received money for sex.
