Cristiano Ronaldo’s rape Lawsuit dropped by Las Vegas Accuser

Juventus star, Cristiano Ronaldo’s rape lawsuit by a Las Vegas accuser has been quietly dropped.

Last year, a rape lawsuit against Cristiano Ronaldo made headlines and even dropped his club, Juventus shares down to 15%. New reports claim that a notice of voluntary dismissal was filed last month in Nevada state court in Las Vegas.

The filing didn’t state whether the accuser had reached a settlement with the Portuguese soccer player. The New York Times reported in March that Juventus, the Italian league champions, wouldn’t participate in the International Champions Cup in the U.S. this summer to avoid the risk that Ronaldo would be detained by authorities as part of a rape investigation.

Ronaldo publicly denied the allegations and never filed a response to the lawsuit.

Katheryn Mayorga filed a complaint Sept. 27, alleging that she was sexually assaulted by Ronaldo in 2009 in his penthouse suite at a Las Vegas hotel. Mayorga said in the complaint that while she agreed to a settlement with Ronaldo after the alleged assault, she was experiencing severe emotional trauma at the time and wasn’t competent to participate in the mediation.
