Former NFL CB Fred Smoot was arrested on Sunday in DC for domestic violence when his girlfriend, Valerie Jackson claimed he beat her up after she exposed him for using Viagra and having empty boxes of condoms. Jackson posted photos of her bruises and text message conversations allegedly between her and Smoot to air all the dirty laundry to the public.
However, Smoot is lashing back, and he says that Jackson is just a bitter ex-girlfriend that he kicked to the curb a month ago. According to Smoot, Jackson is trying to defame his character in an attempt to get revenge for the breakup.
Former Washington Redskins corner back Fred Smoot claims his “disgruntled” ex-girlfriend concocted domestic violence allegations against him in retaliation for him ending their relationship.
Smoot’s lawyer tells TMZ Sports the ex “has elected to engage in a campaign to defame Fred and ruin him both personally and professionally.”
The lawyer says Smoot broke things off with his accuser a month ago and that’s why she made up this story.
