Former Dallas Cowboys and Hall of Fame wide receiver Michael Irvin filed a $100 million defamation lawsuit against Marriott International and a female employee who accused him of misconduct last month. Saturday, the company's lawyers released details of the allegations in a 28-page court filing obtained by USA TODAY Sports.
"Total hogwash," McCathern said in a statement to The News Friday."Marriott's recently-created account goes against all the eyewitnesses and Michael's own testimony as well as common sense. We will release the video next week. There is no sexual assault. The fact Marriott is taking the position that it is is an insult to all of the true female victims out there."
He's also accused of reaching out and touching the employee's arm without her consent, before asking if she knew anything about having a"big Black man inside of ."Then, Irvin allegedly attempted to grab the employee's hand again, saying he was"sorry if he brought up bad memories’ for her." “Seeing that other Hotel employees were in the area and wanting the interaction to end, the Victim returned Irvin’s handshake,” Marriott’s lawyers wrote. “Irvin then stated that he would come back to find her sometime that week when she was working.”
"I was shocked by Marriott's prior handling of this situation. I am now disgusted and appalled. I wish trial was tomorrow, so Michael could clear his name and get the compensation he deserves for Marriott's reckless disregard for the truth," McCathern added.Marriott offered the details with a direct response to Irvin's recent emotional comments at a Wednesday press conference with his lawyers.
