It was consensual?

I haven’t said much about the civil suit against Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger because a) I’m not a lawyer; and b) so far, we’ve only had the alleged victim’s 36-page original complaint to comment on.

However, in an affidavit filed on Friday, Angela Antonetti, a former co-worker of the alleged victim, stated that Andrea McNulty “did not appear to be upset, stressed-out or nervous” about the incident… in fact, she appeared to be “happy and boastful”, and even wondered if she might “have a little Roethlisberger” inside her (i.e. be pregnant).

Antonetti further states that McNulty’s series of psychological treatments and long absences from work after the alleged incident were actually related to the affair she was having with a married man, and another “relationship” she was having with a soldier in Iraq (who was actually an imaginary person made up by the wife of the man she was having an affair with).

Look folks, this is just the opinion of one of Andrea McNulty’s co-workers. I’m sure that if you asked most of your co-workers about you, you’d get several “he’s a great guy” comments and a few “he’s a complete jerk” comments. The point is, just because one woman says that McNulty is lying doesn’t mean that the suit is a slam-dunk for Roethlisberger’s attorneys. It’s not, however, a good sign for McNulty. Her case has always seemed shaky, and a few more affidavits like these and the suit will collapse.
