Woman Says Michael Irvin Raped Her
(CN) - NFL Hall of Famer Michael Irvin raped a woman in his Florida hotel room while another man held her down, then Irvin held her and they forced her to give his friend oral sex, Jane Doe claims in Broward County Court. She says Irvin's brother entered the room then, took her to another room, "and assisted in covering the sexual assault and rape up."
Jane Doe says she was raped after Michael Irvin and his "unknown male companion were consuming large amounts of alcoholic beverages and unknown substances" at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Fort Lauderdale on the night of July 4-5, 2007.
After buying her drinks, she says, Irvin "enticed and lured" her to his room, where he and his friend "started pushing money at her and tried stuffing under her clothes by her breasts." (Sic.)
She says she demanded to leave, but the men "insisted on sexual favors." She says they both exposed their penises to her, and when she demanded again to leave, Irvin "become more aggressive and violent."
She says Irvin's friend held her "down on the bed and covered her mouth."
"While being restrained by the unknown mail companion, the defendant, Michael Irving, sexually assaulted and raped the plaintiff," the complaint states.
After this, she says, Irvin "physically flipped the plaintiff, Jane Doe, over and held her at which time the unknown male companion proceeded to unlawfully and knowingly force his penis into the mouth of the plaintiff against her will".
After this, she says, "Derrick Irvin, brother of the defendant, Michael Irvin, entered the room and proceeded to take the plaintiff, Jane Doe, to another room and assisted in covering the sexual assault and rape up."
She claims Michael Irvin "has a history of attempting to commit similar acts of violent sexual assaults". She demands damages for sexual assault and rape.
The only defendant named in the complaint is Michael Irvin.
Doe is represented by David Lister with Martin, Lister and Alvarez, of Weston, Fla.
