Mike Florio on police not pursuing sexual assault charges against Dak Prescott, what's next in civil case
Dallas police are no longer investigating sexual assault claims a woman made against Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott stemming from an alleged incident that took place in 2017.
A police spokesperson said Thursday that there was insufficient evidence an offense was committed.
"I want to thank the Dallas Police Department and Dallas County District Attorneys' office for their thorough investigation of the allegations against Dak Prescott," attorney Levi McCathern said in a statement sent to 105.3 The Fan's Shan Shariff. "As we knew they would, they found nothing in their extensive exploration of the facts that would support a criminal prosecution. We are confident that at the end of law enforcement's investigation into the extortion case that they will find the accuser and her attorneys just as guilty as Dak is innocent.
"As I have said from the beginning, Dak is a great football player and an even better human. He would never assault any woman. These false accusations were brought up seven years after the alleged events for one reason and one reason only -- to line the pockets of the accuser and her attorneys. Their behavior is an affront to all the true survivors of sexual assault."
Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio joined Shan, RJ and Bobby to discuss what the outcome of the investigation means for Prescott and what the next steps are in the civil case.
