This is from Yahoo, this is serious shit. It not a hermaferdite, lol. Look
RENO, Nev. – A woman has filed a lawsuit accusing Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger of raping her last summer in his penthouse room at a casino in Lake Tahoe during a celebrity golf tournament.
Roethlisberger's lawyer adamantly denied the allegations Tuesday.
"Ben has never sexually assaulted anyone. The timing of the lawsuit and the absence of a criminal complaint and a criminal investigation are the most compelling evidence of the absence of any criminal conduct. If an investigation is commenced, Ben will cooperate fully and Ben will be fully exonerated," David Cornwell said in a statement.
The claim seeks at least $390,000 in damages from the quarterback, who has won two Super Bowls and is one of biggest names in sports. The lawsuit also alleges hotel officials for Harrah's Lake Tahoe went to great lengths to cover up the incident.
Teresa Duffy, a spokeswoman for the sheriff's office in Douglas County, which includes part of Lake Tahoe, said no complaints were filed about such an incident either with sheriff's deputies or the district attorney's office.
The woman's lawsuit says she didn't file a criminal complaint because she feared she would be fired and expected Harrah's would side with Roethlisberger.
The woman said she had been promoted from VIP shift manager and was working as an executive casino host when Roethlisberger struck up a friendly conversation at her desk during the golf tournament.
The next day, July 11, 2008, she said he telephoned her to tell her his television sound system wasn't working and asked her to look at it.
She said she was unable to find a technician so she decided to handle it herself because she had been told how important it was to please celebrities.
In Roethlisberger's room she said she determined the TV was functioning properly but as she turned to leave but the 6-foot-5, 240-pound quarterback stood in front of the day and blocked her, the suit claims.
The lawsuit said he then grabbed her and started to kiss her. It said she was "shocked and stunned that this previously friendly man, that appeared to be a gentleman in her previous contacts with him was suddenly preventing her from leaving, was assaulting her and battering her."
She said she feared that because he was a football player he could or would physically harm her if she tried to fight him off but that she objected and protested several times.
"But instead of stopping, Roethlisberger began fondling plaintiff through her dress and between her legs," the suit said. He then "held her against her will and physically moved plaintiff and pushed her onto his bed" here he raped her, the suit says.
She told him "You don't want to do this," and begged him "I am not on any type of birth control."
Afterward, he asked if there was a security camera in the hallway. She said he then instructed her to claim she had repaired his television if anyone asked why she was in his room.
The lawsuit says the woman required hospitalization for treatment for depression after the alleged attack.
The woman's lawyer, Calvin R. Dunlap, of Reno, declined to answer questions about the lack of a criminal complaint and why the civil action was brought a year after the incident allegedly took place.
"Neither I nor our client will be making any comment," Dunlap said in an e-mail to AP. "We believe the matter should be resolved in court rather than in the media."
The lawsuit also names eight Harrah's employees as defendants and alleges the cover-up involved the chief of security at Harrah's Lake Tahoe and was carried out with the knowledge of John Koster, president of Harrah's northern Nevada operations.
John Packer, spokesman for the hotel-casino, did not immediately return a telephone call seeking comment.
The suit says Harrah's security chief Guy Hyder gained the trust of her parents while she was hospitalized for depression and persuaded them to give him a key to her home. She said Hyder and others then entered her home and allegedly erased information from her computer and confiscated it.
The lawsuit claims that when the woman first reported the attack to Hyder he dismissed her distress and crying and said she was "over reacting.
The woman said Hyder told her that "most girls would feel lucky to get to have sex with someone like Ben Roethlisberger" and that "Koster would love you even more if he knew about this" because Koster was good friends with Roethlisberger and admired him greatly.
Steelers spokesman Dave Lockett said Tuesday the team is aware of the lawsuit, and "we are gathering information."

That chick has complete f'ing wacko written all over her. What a waste of city resources. You were raped? Where is the police report, the rape kit, and the 4-5 people you told?
Are you f'ing kidding me with this?
I seriously doubt Ben would corner a chick in his room and forceably rape her - ESPECIALLY the "VIP of whatever."
What a joke.

If she's a wacko why was she promoted as an executive at the casino. They would of just paid her off, not promoted her. Just saying it's still news Wacko or not. Just go with it, it can only help the Browns, lol.

She wasn't a "casino executive" she was a VIP shift manager, which is one stop above Mall Cop.
I love anything that helps the Browns - if it is legitimate. This smacks of wacko broad that wants her money.

She WAS a shift manger, and was promoted to a casino executive after the incident. Which was my point.

I see what you're saying, but executive casino host, and Casino Executive, are two different things.

True, but a raise none the less. I am sure she was given bank for that position.

I don't buy this chicks story.
You've been raped by a high profile Super Bowl winning QB of highly rated celebrity, and you don't press charges or go straight to the police because you're......wait for it ...... afraid of losing your $40K a year job as a f'ing Hostess at Harrahs? Huh?
Let me tell you something, the timing of this case is beautiful. Right before the start of training camp, after countless attempts to get money out of a professional athlete.
I am supposed to believe some TV repair chick/hostess over a guy who convinced the Steelers to take him as their #1, and who subsequently prepared long and hard enough to win 2 SB's?
I am not saying we shouldn't find out the facts, but so far the facts I have seen from the plantiff are goofy and wacky, and completely unbelievable.

Well from what I hear, she was afraid of losing her job because the hotel was blackmailing her, and the hotel tried to cover it up as good as they could.

This is a serious black eye for all involved. I hope the truth comes out in it's fullest. Even if he is innocent it's still a hard hit on his reputation just being accused of rape. I want what's best for the browns but I'd feel better about it if we did it on the field and not through the legal system. If he is guilty I lost all respect for him as a person and there wasn't much to begin with.
