Judge reaches decision on Dak Prescott sexual assault lawsuit

Police chose not to arrest Dak Prescott last month after a woman accused the Dallas Cowboys quarterback of sexual assault, and a lawsuit against him has also been dismissed.

Prescott’s sexual assault complaint was rejected by a Collin County, Texas court on Wednesday, as reported by Calvin Watkins of the Dallas Morning News. A hearing has been planned for September 13 to determine whether sanctions should be imposed against the Fort Worth woman who made the allegations against Prescott.

Angela Tucker, the judge, decided that the accusations were unsubstantiated. “Despite [the accusers] and her legal team’s relentless efforts to extort money and damage Dak’s reputation, justice has consistently prevailed and will continue to do so,” Prescott’s attorney, Levi G. McCathern, told the Dallas Morning News.

The woman who brought the allegations filed a complaint in March, alleging Prescott sexually attacked her in the back of an SUV outside a strip club in 2017.

Prescott filed a lawsuit against the woman in March after his lawyers said they got a letter from the woman’s legal counsel two months earlier seeking $100 million.

Prescott’s lawyers claim the lady attempted to extort the quarterback by demanding money in exchange for not pursuing criminal charges. Prescott disputed the allegation, claiming the lady was attempting to make money by accusing him of “a rape case I obviously did not do.”

Prescott had one of his best seasons as a pro last year with 4,516 passing yards, 36 touchdowns and 9 interceptions. The Cowboys had another disappointing playoff exit with a first-round blowout loss at the hands of the Green Bay Packers.

Prescott has been seeking a contract extension from the Cowboys, and there have been reports that he wants a record-breaking salary.
