The McGregor Situation

Page 1 of 4

Probably wouldn't have made the news if a famous person wasn't involved.

She claims that each of McGregor’s own security, NBA security, and Miami Heat security were all involved in separating her from her friend and coercing her into the bathroom.

So, that’s three independent security firms that are all apparently corrupt and in collusion with one another.

Additionally, she claims that - after being forced to perform oral - she was able to thwart his attempts to sodomise her by ELBOWING HIM MULTIPLE TIMES TO THE HEAD.

1. The guy is a world class MMA fighter (despite the drop off in recent years). If he would go so far as to rape a woman, surely he wouldn’t have any qualms with knocking one out who was attempting to elbow him multiple times.

2. I can’t pretend to know what it’s like to get raped or the psychology of the moment, but it seems to me like your perfect opportunity to get away/cause damage to the assailant is to clamp down like a Staffordshire bull terrier during oral, not wait until that parts finished and he goes down the sodomy route, only to channel your best Jon Jones and start throwing elbows.

3. Throwing elbows is not a first thought for most people when it comes to self defence. Fists, kicking, kneeing, head butting, scratching, biting all precede elbowing on the instinct scale. I would go as far to say that only someone trained or at least interested in martial arts would go to their elbows as a first resort which, if she in fact is, adds that extra bit of correlation and motivation as to accuse the biggest star in MMA history.

Finally, she claims she doesn’t want to press charges, but does want an out-of-court settlement. She’s basically portraying the message “keep on raping, I just want some money, not any actual justification or to prevent this happening to others in future”, which again just seems totally incongruent and inconsistent with someone who has just been raped.

McGregor is a rat these days and it wouldn’t surprise me at all if he has done something analogous to this at some point, but this particular account just seems filled with holes

Basically, this.

After several cogent points, the bit about just wanting some cash is the icing on the cake. As much as I can't stand that obnoxious pr1kc McGregor, this claim seems as fake as a 3 bob note.

Blimey. Poor woman. If this is true then I hope she gets all the support she needs.

As for him, well, its obvious he should never play for us again.

I'd seen it mentioned but not read much about it.

Going off whats been mentioned above and the fact that 3 different security parties have apparently come together to make this happen seems unlikely.

In a place like that there would have to be security footage of it.

Seems like someone simply wanting a pay off.

Isn't this the second time he's been accused of sexual assault on a woman? His Mrs & kids must be proud.

“Finally, she claims she doesn’t want to press charges, but does want an out-of-court settlement.”

A report was filed with Miami police the morning after the alleged assault and is being investigated by their Special Victims Unit.

Submitting a police report immediately after the event would be a very strange thing to do if she didn’t want to press charges.

The alleged victim’s lawyer has also said that they have obtained video footage of at least part of the alleged incident.

People might be wise to remind themselves of Tarantino’s words before commenting on this matter:

The less a man makes declarative statements, the less apt he is to look foolish in retrospect.

Where is the quote about not wanting to press charges even coming from? It's not in the BBC article the OP mentioned.

Always disheartening how many men reflexively embrace the "gold digger" trope when a woman says she has been raped.

We still don't know the full details regarding what she was wearing so can't judge who was wrong and who was right

If I’m not very much mistaken, it was the OP who earlier this week was complaining that (paraphrase) “you never see feminists arguing for equality in sentencing in cases where parents kill their child,” whilst referring to a specific case in which mother and father were convicted of different crimes (manslaughter and murder, respectively).

“ Although the woman reported the alleged sexual assault to local authorities, she apparently does not want to press charges, with Mitchell writing in her letters that the woman is only seeking settlements with McGregor, the NBA and Heat. TMZ reported that the Miami Police Department said it has conducted an investigation since Sunday, which remains ongoing.”

The Mitchell referred to is the accuser’s attorney.

Always disheartening how many men seek to levy judgement upon others to appear righteous without doing the most basic level of background research possible.

Why? Just because you don't like what he's written, everyone else should block him?

Why don't you just block him and move on?

Ahh the good old jump to conlusions and sentence without one iota of proof.

I think, and this is as controversion a take as they come, that someone as handsome (haha gay statement but simply a fact) and rich and famous and lets face it smart, as McGregor is not going to rape someone when he could get most women

I wasn't referring to the question of whether she was pressing charges when I made my broader point; Rosso didn't make that statement which you're referencing when he noted she made a police report. So it's not quite clear what you're trying to refute here.

But more generally, with every high profile rape allegation case you get a swathe of dudes arguing that the woman wasn't raped and is motivated by money. That's just a fact. It's also a fact that women do get raped, and so in at least some of the cases where men are instinctively siding with the accused, they are siding with a rapist. It doesn't make me righteous disliking that state of affairs. It's not that I'm a morally fine human being. I have many flaws, and have done plenty of selfish things that I shouldn't be proud of. So no, it's not about me being righteous. It's about some people being woman-hating cиnts.

Any chance you’ve done any sort of research whatsoever and are ready to retract your previous comments?

It's statistically probably that forum member U15888 will be selected for jury service one day.

RE:
Sexual Assault, Battery, Unlawful Restraint, Kidnapping, Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress, Negligent Infliction of Emotional Distress, etc.
NBA Finals - Game 4
Kaseya Center, Miami, FL.
June 9, 2023
Dear Mr. McGregor and Mr. Attar:
This firm has been retained as litigation counsel to pursue all legal remedies against you, Mr.
McGregor, for the sexual assault and battery that occurred after Game 4 of the NBA Finals at the Kaseya Center in Miami, FL. on June 9, 2023. Upon information and belief, this firm believes you represent Mr. McGregor and, as such, submits its demand herein.
It has been well publicized that Mr. McGregor was an invited guest of the NBA and the
Miami Heat at Game 4 of the NBA Finals in Miami. Mr. McGregor participated in a skit to promote a new body spray Tidl with the Miami Heat mascot, Burnie, which ended with the mascot being hospitalized. Mr. McGregor's outrageous and offensive behavior towards our client cannot be construed as satire, as with the mascot, as in this instance the victim was an unwilling participant in Mr. McGregor's criminal and illegal behavior.
After the game, and after Mr. McGregor sent the Miami Heat mascot Burnie to the hospital, Mr. McGregor elevated his aggressive, unprovoked, and outrageous behavior by violently sexually assaulting and battering this firm's client in the men's bathroom of the Kaseya Center. Mr.
McGregor, aided and abetted by the NBA and Miami Heat Kaseya security, had the victim physically forced via security into the men's bathroom, separating her from her friend and trapping her inside with Mr. McGregor and his security guard.
Once isolated and trapped in the VIP men's bathroom at the Kaseya Center, security refused to let her exit or allow anyone else, including her friend, inside the bathroom. Mr. McGregor then appeared from inside the handicapped stall and shoved his tongue in the victim's mouth and aggressively kissed her. The victim was able to get Mr. McGregor to cease his assault by demanding he stop because she had to urinate. When the victim attempted to urinate, Mr. McGregor, instead of giving her privacy to do so, pulled out his pnis and shoved it down the throat of the victim. The victim pushed Mr. MeGregor off of her, and Mr. McGregor then spat on the victim and on his pnis in a desperate attempt to get his flaccid pnis hard. After the victim was able to thwart Mr. McGregor's sodomy, she attempted to again leave the men's bathroom. As the victim tried to exit the stall, Mr. McGregor aggressively grabbed her, pinned her up against the wall and then ripped the elastic waist band of her pants while pulling them down. Mr. McGregor then attempted to insert his pnis into the victim's r3ctum. Fortunately, Mr. McGregor's pnis was too limp for complete penetration, and the victim continuously elbowed Mr. McGregor and finally escaped. 'The victim escaped so hurriedly that she left her purse in the bathroom, and her purse was then held hostage by Mr. McGregor's security. The victim's purse was only returned to her after several desperate pleas by the victim so she could leave the venue. Immediately after this assault, the victim contacted law
enforcement and retained this firm. Mr. McGregor has been accused multiple times of battery, assault and sexual violence by others in foreign countries, so of course Mr. McGregor believed he could continue with this violent and egregious behavior while a visitor in the United States. Mr. MeGregor gave the victim his WhatsApp contact information which this firm sent a text message to regarding this incident. 'The
WhatsApp number given by the victim and used to communicate with Mr. McGregor is + This correspondence is in anticipation of litigation. As such, any and all videos, photographs, or other evidence must be preserved immediately upon receipt of this communication. Any failure to retain such evidence, or intentional deletion of pertinent evidence may lead to sanctions against
vou if litigation is pursued. We know a lengthy, public litigation would encourage other victims and witnesses to come forward. This firm has been instructed to explore all reasonable settlement offers to resolve these claims before they escalate further. In the event you or your attorneys fail to contact this firm by 7pm EST on June 12, 2023, to discuss an acceptable resolution, we will assume that you do not
intend to settle this matter and will proceed with litigation.
