More details have emerged since the shocking revelation that Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Felipe Vazquez found himself arrested and facing multiple felonies in 2 states including felony statutory sexual assault, felony unlawful contact with a minor and felony solicitation of a child.
On Tuesday, new court papers describe the lefty All-Star’s illegal relationship with a 13-year-old girl that he admitted to engaging in “sex but not really, because it was so short.
He only made it worse when he admitted to knowing she was likely underage, but engaged in sexual acts anyway.
“When speaking with cops, the Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher says he initially refused to communicate with the girl “due to her age” … noting, “she appeared to be 16 years of age or younger.”
In the documents, cops say the girl told investigators they began communicating over social media in 2017 when she was only 13 years old.
She claims Vazquez escalated the situation by driving to her Pennsylvania home in August 2017 with the intention of having sex with her.
The girl claims Vazquez invited her into his red Mustang and then began to make sexual moves on her … at one point trying to have vaginal sex.
Both the girl and Vazquez acknowledge he penetrated her with his penis but they stopped almost immediately — and he left claiming he had to get ready for a game that night.
When Vazquez spoke with cops, he told investigators that the girl initiated the sexual contact that day.
Cops say in July 2019, Vazquez sent her a text message, sexual in nature, expressing a desire to finish what they started.”
Vazquez is charged with felony counts of statutory sexual assault, unlawful contact with a minor, corruption of minors, as well as a misdemeanor count of indecent assault of a person less than 16 years old.
The two also exchanged nude photos and the victim sent him videos in which she performed sex acts on herself. That is why he also faces faces solicitation of a child and providing obscene material to minors.
