UFC superstar Conor McGregor WILL BE facing criminal charges for an alleged sexual assault at an NBA Finals game in June, according .
Tuesday, TMZ reported prosecutors concluded in a memo there was “insufficient evidence” and “contradicting and/or no corroborating witnesses” to prove beyond a reasonable doubt McGregor sexually assaulted a woman on June 9 at Game 4 of the NBA Finals at Kaseya Center in Miami. An attorney for McGregor, Barbara Llanes, was pleased with the decision because there was “no case to pursue.”
McGregor attended the event for a promotional appearance where he knocked out the Miami Heat mascot Burnie. The suspected sexual assault occurred after the basketball game concluded when McGregor was alleged to have “violently raped” a woman inside a men’s restroom.
CCTV footage from the arena showed McGregor and his accuser entering the restroom together for around five minutes. They were then later seen together at a club inside the arena.
According to the memo, prosecutors interviewed a bathroom attendant who witnessed the pair enter a stall together, but he “did not hear any signs of distress or sounds that would corroborate that whatever was occurring was not consensual.” The accuser’s friend also told prosecutors she was not made aware of the alleged attack.
