Rape Accuser Tried to Extort Winston Complex

Today, David Cornwell—a lawyer who has handled cases for high-profile athletes like Ben Roethlisberger and Ryan Braun—responded to the Title IX investigation in a letter that was acquired by TMZ. According to TMZ, the letter states that Winston will be fully cooperative with the investigation. However, it also notes that, prior to accusing Winston of sexual assault, the accuser’s lawyer tried to extort Winston for a $7M settlement and said that she and her client wouldn’t bring the allegations to light if Winston’s team gave them the money. Again, this is what Cornwell and his team are claiming.
