Let’s make no mistake it is highly likely that Ben Roethlisberger raped at least one woman and maybe more during his early years in the NFL.
Roethlisberger financially settled multiple cases with his accusers which is why they stop cooperating with the police and he was never officially charged.
He was suspended by the NFL because of his actions, but because it was a different climate back then his career hasn’t been affected that much by it.
He was being inducted into the Hancock Sports Hall of Fame in his hometown and amazingly lashed out at people who didn’t want to support him because he was likely a rapist.
In the past, “Some negative things were said about me by people in this town. I was hurt and I resented that,” he said.
“But I want to say I’m sorry for letting a few bad words cloud the support I’ve had from so many people.
“I’m proud of this town. It means a lot to me and my family to be embraced with open arms like this.
“I’m humble and I’m proud to call Findlay home.”
I am sure the woman Ben locked in the bathroom against her will was hurt by that too.
