Derrick Rose did the unusual step of fighting a $21 million rape lawsuit in open court. Most athletes and entertainers just settle the cases because they don’t want their dirty laundry to be aired, but Rose wanted to clear his name completely.
While things came out that made Rose look horrible (not knowing what the word consent meant) in the end the text messages and other evidence spotlighted in the trial led the jury to believe Rose was being extorted and not a rapist.
The accused appealed the verdict, but it was upheld with the appeal judges agreeing with the initial outcome of the trial.
Because she lost both cases, she has to pay Derrick Rose now or she will be in contempt of court.
