Article here. Excerpt:
'Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger rejected the rape allegations levied against him by Andrea McNulty in a brief statement on Thursday.
"The allegations against me are reckless and false," Roethlisberger said at the Steelers' facility in Pittsburgh. He did not take any questions.
"I would never, ever force myself on a woman," Roethlisberger said.
McNulty filed a civil lawsuit against Roethlisberger in Nevada alleging the quarterback raped her at a casino following a golf tournament last year. She has not filed a criminal complaint, and Nevada police have not investigated the claims as a result.'

Super Bowl
She claims this happened a year ago. Since then, the Steelers won the Super Bowl with Roethlisberger as starting quarterback. His success and new found fame has enabled him to make millions in endorsements. She now claims he sexually assaulted her but didn't file a criminal complaint. Keep in mind civil cases are much easier to win and potentially very profitable.
Bottom line: She wants $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
