Ben Roethlisberger Assault – Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger has been hit with a civil lawsuit alleging sexual assault and defamation filed by Andrea McNulty in Reno, Nevada.
In the Ben Roethlisberger assault lawsuit, the two-time Super Bowl champion is one of nine defendants in a defamation lawsuit filed by Andrea McNulty in Washoe County, Nev. on Friday, according to the Associated Press.
The other defendants in the civil suit are: John Koster, Guy Hyder, Mark Masters, Dave Monroe, Mike Rosenow, Debbie Neall, Bryan Casuscelli, and Stacy Dingman.
Several of the other defendants are employees of Harrah’s Casino in Reno, where the sexual assault is alleged to have taken place in July 2008.
Roethlisberger was served with the lawsuit while he was on the green in the 20th Annual American Celebrity Golf Championship at Lake Tahoe, Nevada.
Roethlisberger’s attorney, David Cornwall, said in a statement, “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.”
Cornwall said Roethlisberger “will cooperate fully and Ben will be fully exonerated.”
Andrea McNulty alleged in her assault lawsuit that Roethlisberger insisted that she personally come to his room to fix his television set and then assaulted her against her will.
And that’s the latest news on the alleged Ben Roethlisberger assault.

According to published sources, Andrea McNulty essentially states, in very specific terms, that Roethlisberger requested — multiple times — that she (as opposed to sending another employee) come to his room and fix his television set.
She alleges that, after arriving at Roethlisberger’s room, she checked the television, it was not broken and that’s when she attempted to leave the room, Roethlisberger stopped her from leaving and then “grabbed [her] and started to kiss her.” The allegations then get very specific.
She claims that he pushed her onto the bed, and despite her alleged protests he “pulled her underpants off and proceeded to penetrate her.”
McNulty claims that she told him, “You don’t want to do this.” She also claims that she said, “Please don’t,” and that she told him she was not on any type of birth control.
She claims that he said in response, “Don’t worry, I’ll pull out,” which he ultimately did.
The complaint then proceeds to document the remainder of the alleged encounter, with McNaulty claiming that Roethlisberger asked her about surveillance — “There are cameras on this room, aren’t there?” — to which she claims her response was: “Yes, there are cameras everywhere.”
McNulty then alleges that Roethlisberger became “stern” and told her, “If anyone asks you, you fixed my television. You fixed my television. Now go!”
