Shannon Sharpe accused of raping women in the lawsuit

NFL HALL OF FAMERS Shannon Sharpe has been charged with rape and sexual abuse in a mood submitted by a woman in the Nevada State Court.

The plaintiff, who is right under the name Jane Doe, claims that Sharpe, 56, who now works for ESPN, raped her on several occasions during an almost two -year, “rocky consensus relationship”, according to a complaint obtained by people.

The woman claims that Sharpe also registered her sexual meetings without her consent and shared the recordings with others.

“A woman can say” yes “to consensual sexual relationships with a man ninety times, but when she says” no “until once, it means” no “no”, says the complaint. “The respondent Shannon Sharpe, a man who is used to getting what he wants, fails to understand this basic concept.”

The woman, now a Nevada resident, says she met Sharpe when she was 22 years old at a gym in Los Angeles in 2023. She claims he made several progress against her in subsequent visits to the gym before the complaint says she eventually gave up.

Sharpe asked the woman to sign an agreement for non-disclosure before she could meet him, but lost the request after she drove back, says the mood.

The atmosphere tells of a subsequent alleged incident, during which she claims Sharpe became violent with her and threatened to kill her after she appeared late to his home.

“He demanded complete control over her time and body and expected her to be home on her schedule, on his command, when he called,” the costume claims.

In 2024, both Sharpe and the plaintiff were each individual to Nevada.

The suit refers to the time in September 2024 Sharpe says he was wrongly began livestreaming itself on instagram to have sex with a woman. The plaintiff says that this meeting was with another woman and that she was humiliated by the incident and began to “pull away” from Sharpe.

The plaintiff claims that Sharpe then began to flood her phone with conversations, which caused her to leave Nevada often, according to the mood.

The suit then describes an incident in October 2024, during which Sharpe is alleged to forced the plaintiff to a car and took her to her apartment. The plaintiff claims that Sharpe then forced her to perform oral sex before raping her.

“Sharpe grabbed her head and forced her to look at him as she cried,” claims the mood. “He said at that time: ‘Look at this. Look at my arm. I have chills. That’s how good this is.’

In January 2025, the plaintiff claims that Sharpe asked to come to her apartment to give her a combined Christmas and birthday present. Once there, the complainant claims in the complaint that he again attacked her sexually and refused to bear a condom.

A representative of Sharpe could not be immediately reached for comments.

The plaintiff claims $ 50 million in damages as part of the mood. She is represented by Tony Buzbeea high -profile lawyer based in Houston who has also represented customers who accuse Sean “Diddy” Combs and NFL -quarterback Deshaun Watson of sexual behavior.

“I’m extremely proud to represent Jane Doe,” Buzbee said in a statement. “It requires a lot of courage to stand up against those with power, fame and money. I look forward to pressing this case in court.”

Sharpe spent his NFL career with Denver Broncos and Baltimore Ravens and won three Super Bowls. After his retirement, he became a listed personality for sports media.

Last week, Front Office Sport reported that Sharpe, which hosts the popular podcast The club Shay Shay, was expected to sign a nine-digit podcast deal.
