Shannon Sharpe refrained from addressing the recent $50 million lawsuit alleging rape and battery during a live podcast episode. Instead, he and guests focused on sports topics. This came after a woman, referred to as Jane Doe, accused him of multiple sexual assaults following an alleged two-year relationship marked by control and fear. While Sharpe denied the allegations, public and media attention surrounding the case remained high, with listeners commenting live during his show.
Although Sharpe did not bring up the lawsuit, the live chat box was filled with comments about the situation - but he didn't take the bait.
Doe claimed that Sharpe "incessantly pursued" her by calling, texting and demanding she come to his Beverly Glen mansion.
The lawsuit read: "What followed was the beginning of a rocky consensual relationship that lasted nearly two years."
The woman claimed she found herself in a "cycle of control, fear, and submission" with Sharpe.
