Authorities Go After Big Ben's Other Accuser

Ben RoethlisbergerTMZ has learned Georgia law enforcement officers have contacted the lawyer for a woman who made a sexual assault claim last year against Ben Roethlisberger.

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation -- which is currently investigating Ben for an alleged sexual assault earlier this month -- contacted Cal Dunlap, the attorney for Andrea McNulty, requesting a sit down with her.

McNulty sued Ben last year, claiming Ben sexually assaulted her in a Lake Tahoe hotel room in 2008. Ben denies the claim.

Dunlap flatly rejected GBI's overture, telling TMZ, "We believe the facts alleged by our client are already in public documents. A case in Georgia ought to be brought or not brought on its own merits."

I agree with McNulty's attorney. The GA charges should be brought on there own merits. It sounds like the police are grasping for straws. I would think that if they had enough evidence to charge him, they would have done it by now.

Going after the accuser in a separate civil lawsuit. Didn't "My Cousin Vinny" teach everyone not to get in trouble in the south?

I don't know whether he did it or not, but he (Ben R.) seems to be getting the benefit of the doubt unlike Tiger who has been villified without there even being a rape allegation! Why is that America?

He looks like a fat adolescent barbarian blowing bubble gum. Is that war paint on his face? Obviously I'm not a football fan and don't keep up with the significance of why they mark their faces with black paint. It's amazing that people in the U.S. hold people up to be sports "heroes" including other celebrities and worship them and pay them over-inflated salaries by going to see them in action. Football and golf are boring games.
