Last week Shannon Sharpe warned his fans that the woman accusing him of rxpe in a $50 million civil lawsuit was planning to release a shocking video [click here if you missed that].
Now attorney attorney Tony Buzbee claims there were never any plans to release the tape....
From TMZ
The lawyer representing the woman accusing Shannon Sharpe of rape will not be releasing the video that allegedly depicts the two engaging in six ... calling it "key evidence" in their case against the former NFL star.
Tony Buzbee tells TMZ Sports ... he and his client -- who filed a lawsuit against Sharpe earlier this month for sixual assault using the pseudonym Jane Doe -- have zero plans right now to put the footage out to the media.
"The only reason you know about the existence of a video recording is that Mr. Sharpe specifically referenced it in his bulls*** statement," Buzbee said. "The contents of the video was shared during the mediation process with Sharpe’s attorneys. Again, Sharpe and his team disclosed that, not us. Sharpe himself was offered on more than one occasion to view it himself. He declined. We've never made any claims or threats about it and won't do so."
"And no," he added, "we won’t be 'releasing' the video as it is key evidence in the case and will be treated as such."
Fun Fact: All references to Shannon Sharpe have been deleted from Tony Buzzbee's social media.
