Shannon Sharpe was continued for $ 50 million
On Monday, April 21, Sharpe was prosecuted before a court of Nevada by a “Jane Doe” for having sexually assaulted it during their alleged relationship, which, according to her, occurred between 2023 and 2025.
In the costume, Doe said that she had met Sharpe in a Los Angeles gymnasium at the age of 20, while the former NFL player would have offered to pay her plastic surgery if she won a weight loss competition with him.
According to Doe, the alleged relationship between her and Sharpe began as a flirtatious interaction, but over time, it turned into something more sinister.
His lawyer, Tony Buzbee, who was just involved in a legal war with Jay-Z, published a statement on this relationship and said Sharpe controlled.

Sharpe’s lawyer said it was a “shake”
In the declaration published in the name of Sharpe, Davis described the trial as an attempt to “shake” orchestrated by Buzbee to obtain “millions” of Sharpe.
Davis continued: “He is filled with lies, distortions and false statements – and she will not succeed.”
He also explained why he published the presumed messages of Zuniga.
“To set the record straight, we publish several of the explicit text messages from Ms. Zuniga to Mr. Sharpe who clearly indicate that the nature of their relationship was consensual and sexual in nature – and, in many cases, initiated by it with specific and graphic requests,” said the press release.
Sharpe’s legal advisor continued: “These messages are only the sampling of a wider model of graphic and sexual communications initiated by Ms. Zuniga. The evidence depicts a clear image: it was a consensual and adult relationship which included role play, sexual language and fantastic scenarios explicitly requested by Mme Zuniga.”
Davis finished saying that Sharpe was held “firmly” in his truth and was ready to fight against “these false claims … in court”.
