Shannon Sharpe, the former NFL player, has found himself in a huge scandal after he was accused of sexually assaulting a woman on multiple occasions. The accuser has not revealed her identity and is being referred to as “Jane Doe” in the media. While the lawsuit has sent shockwaves across the league, a phone call recording between Shannon Sharpe and the woman has been released by the woman’s lawyers, and the conversation between the two is spine chilling.
Did Shannon Sharpe threaten the woman who has claimed that he has sexually assaulted her multiple times?
On Sunday, Jane Doe’s lawyer, Tony Buzbee, sent the audio file to various media outlets, and now Shannon Sharpe is being accused of attempting to “threaten” the woman.
On the infamous phone call, Jane Doe asked Shannon Sharpe if he would get angry in case she hung up. To this, Shannon Sharpe responds that he would not be angry and “it is what it is.”
The conversation progresses further as Jane Doe appears confused and asks Shannon Sharpe what he really meant. Shannon Sharpe says, “Nothing. … You want to be a d*ck to me now, so…”
Jane Doe answered, “I don’t want to be. Don’t manipulate me…”
Hearing this, Shannon Sharpe said, “Ah, lord have mercy. If you say that word one more time, I’m gonna fucking choke the shit out of you when I see you.”
Currently, it has not been confirmed what was the context of the whole conversation but it has divided fans.
A fan took to X and posted, “Why was she recording in the first place? This was 100% pre planned by her. You can see she’s trying to poke him to get him to react 🤦🏼♂️”, while another fan wrote, “People will defend Shannon, but you don’t talk to women this way. Idgaf how mad you are.”
A third fan wrote, “She recorded for one reason: secure that bag”.
Shannon Sharpe and his lawyers have strongly denied all such accusations
The lawsuit claims that Shannon Sharpe and the woman met at a gym in 2023 when she was 20 years old. The woman has claimed she has been sexually assaulted by Shannon Sharpe many times since then.
But Shannon Sharpe and his lawyers have strongly denied such claims. His attorney, Lanny Davis wrote, “Mr. Sharpe categorically denies all allegations of coercion or misconduct—especially the gross lie of ‘rape’—and will not submit to what he sees as an egregious attempt at blackmail…”
The accusations against the former NFL star has divided fans and has sparked mixed reactions. While many fans support the accuser in this case, others feel Shannon Sharpe is being “manipulated” and there is more to the story.
