Ronaldo’s lawyers allegedly threatens to sue his rape accuser

Lawyers to Manchester United striker, Cristiano Ronaldo, have allegedly threatened his rape accuser with “public exposure” and “humiliation” if she continued speaking to police investigating her claim.

Kathryn Mayorga had reported the alleged rape in a Las Vegas hotel room to police and also sued the Manchester United ace.

It was gathered that the rape accuser accepted a £276,000 pay-out from Ronaldo.

But it’s alleged that top lawyers representing Ronaldo and handling the civil case warned her that if she continues to talk to the police they wouldn’t continue settlement and would publicly accuse her of extortion.

The bombshell claim was revealed in a court transcript.

Mayorga‘s attorney, Leslie Mark Stovall, told the US District Court in September last year that Ronaldo’s lawyers had done their homework on Mayorga and knew she was “vulnerable to a very powerful individual and she was frightened of publicity.”

Stovall cited emails between Ronaldo’s lawyers which were exposed by whistleblowing website Football Leaks and said they “worked that angle”.

“What they did is they – and you’ll see it throughout the negotiations – ‘Well, if you continue to talk to Metro, we’re not going to continue settlement and we are going to publically (sic) accuse you of extortion, that you had consensual sex and that you’re now trying to extort money from this famous, well-known person.’

“And she was terrified of that. And that continued to be repeated and repeated and repeated throughout their correspondence. There was a threat.”
