Video After The Jump
Derrick Rose is firing back at his ex-girlfriend, who is suing him for allegedly drugging her and participating in her 2013 gang rape.
The woman, identified only as Jane Doe, claims Rose, his manager Randall Hamptonand Ryan Allen invited her over to the Chicago Bulls point guard's Beverly Hills home. She alleges that once there, drugs were slipped into her drink.
The alleged victim says she escaped the home with a friend, but later that same night the three men broke into her Los Angeles apartment and raped her.
According to TMZ, she waited two years to pursue the current lawsuit because she was "ashamed and embarrassed" by what happened and was worried about her "conservative family" finding out.
On Tuesday, September 29, TMZ obtained new legal documents filed by Rose. In them he says his accuser "consented to sexual interaction with more than one co-defendant on more than one occasion, consented to sexual interactions on the day in question, and invited the defendants to her apartment and buzzed them in."
Rose maintains that problems between the two began when the woman became angry about not being reimbursed for sex toys she bought for the night in question. And the fact that he stopped replying to her text messages.
During the Bulls media day on Monday, September 28, Rose talked about the allegations.
“I will be proven innocent, but at the same time, it hasn’t affected anything. It’s not true. I take it as motivation,” Rose said. “I feel like the devil is just working. I feel like I’m on the right track as far as where I want to be at in my life. And I feel like when you’re that focused, people try to take you down. I’m very confident that I will be proven innocent.”
