It has a very tough week for people in the NFL. Since the release of the video showing former Ravens running back Ray Rice punching his then fiancé in the face, the NFL has been scrutinized for its lack of discipline. As if the organization was not under enough of a microscope, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is being accused of sexual assault.
A few months ago, inappropriate pictures showing Jones with two different women surfaced. Now, one of the women is accusing the owner of sexually assaulting her. Jana Weckerley is accusing the 80 year old owner of trying to cover up the assault and is suing for $1 million in damages. The woman’s lawyer spoke to Dallas media that his client is still suffering from the incident.
In the lawsuit, Weckerley accuses Jones of kissing her without her permission, touching her inappropriately, and forcing her to touch him inappropriately among many other things. The Cowboys organization is also listed as a defendant for trying to cover up the alleged assault. To read the entire lawsuit, click here.
