#Darren Sharper settles lawsuits with three rape accusers

“Darren Sharper settles lawsuits with three rape accusers”

Former NFL star Darren Sharper has settled lawsuits with three women who accused him of drugging and sexually assaulting them.

TMZ Sports reports that the incidents occurred in 2014. Two women said they were drugged and sexually assaulted by Sharper in West Hollywood, and one the next night in Las Vegas. The lawsuits were filed in 2015.

Terms of the settlement were not immediately disclosed.

In 2016, Sharper was sentenced to 18 years in prison after pleading guilty or no contest to drugging and raping as many as 16 women across four states — California, Nevada, Louisiana and Arizona.

In 2019, a federal judge rejected a request from Sharper to overturn his plea and sentence. Sharper argued that he was not adequately advised by his attorneys in the proceedings.
