Cowboys’ Dak Prescott Alleges $100M Extortion Attempt, False Sexual Assault Accusation

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott filed a lawsuit in Collin County, Texas, on Monday against a woman and her attorneys for an alleged extortion attempt.

Prescott received a letter in January from attorneys Bethel and Yoel Zehaie on behalf of a woman accusing the Cowboys quarterback of sexually assaulting her in February 2017. 

According to the lawsuit filed Monday by Prescott, the letter stated that, “Despite the tragic events, she is willing to forego [sic] pursuing criminal charges, along with disclosing this information to the public, in exchange for compensating her for the mental anguish she has suffered. [Her] damages are valued at the sum of $100,000,000.00.”
