According to documents obtained by CowboysSI.com:
“But as noted below, the woman filing under a pseudonym is continuing to pursue legal action, having sued for at least $1 million while alleging that Jones “forcibly kissed, grabbed and groped” her on September 16, 2018 in a ballroom at AT&T Stadium.”
The accuser is reportedly seeking a trial, according to legal expert Amy Dash.
“In the lawsuit, Jane Doe accused Jones of forcibly kissing her on the mouth without her consent on or about September 16, 2018 in the Tom Landry Room at AT&T Stadium. She also accused Jones of sticking his tongue in her mouth, and forcibly grabbing and groping her. In court papers, Doe says the room was full of witnesses when the alleged assault happened, and that she believes the people in the room allegedly included former Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett, running back Ezekiel Elliott, Tyrone Crawford, Tyron Smith and other prominent Cowboys players.”
In an alleged list of “witnesses,”Doe also named Cowboys’ defensive end Demarcus Lawrence, and Eugenia Jones, Jerry Jones’ wife.”
The woman claims the alleged incident caused her “severe injuries, emotional distress, psychological pain and suffering and medical expenses,” along with “headaches, dizziness, extreme sadness, night sweats, panic attacks, nausea, depression, PTSD, crying spells and other mental and physical problems.”
In response to the suit, Jones attorneys called the allegations “vague,” lacking “any factual support” and “false.”
