No charges to be filed against Conor McGregor for alleged sexual assault at NBA Finals
No formal charges will be fied against UFC superstar Conor McGregor after a woman accused him of sexually assaulting her in a bathroom at Kaseya Center in Miami, Florida during the NBA Finals.
The Miami Police Department said in a statement that the matter against the former two-division champion is “closed.”
McGregor was accused of “violently” forcing himself on a woman inside a VIP men’s bathroom following Game 4 of the series but law enforcement officials now say there was “insufficient evidence.”
A lawyer for the woman wrote that NBA and Heat security helped separate the alleged victim from her friend and “forced” her inside a bathroom where McGregor and his security team were.
The lawyer says “security refused to let [the woman] exit or allow anyone else, including her friend, inside the bathroom.” McGregor allegedly emerged from a stall and shoved his “tongue in the victim’s mouth and aggressively” kissed her.
McGregor was also accused of forcing the woman to have oral sex with him and “attempting to sodomize her” after pinning her against the wall.
The former UFC champion denies the allegations.
