New Allegations Surface Against Ravens K Justin Tucker in Shocking Scandal!
Three additional massage therapists have come forward with accusations against Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker, alleging inappropriate behavior during massage sessions. These new claims were published by the Baltimore Banner on Saturday, adding to similar allegations made by six massage therapists in an article released just two days earlier. The incidents reportedly took place between 2012 and 2016 in the Baltimore area, and two spas are said to have banned Tucker from their establishments as a result of these accusations.
Allegations and Reactions
The latest claims from the Baltimore Banner mirror those made in the earlier report, which detailed allegations from several massage therapists who accused Tucker of inappropriate actions during their sessions. The new allegations, though, bring additional scrutiny to the Ravens kicker’s behavior in professional settings.
Following the release of the initial allegations on Thursday, Tucker swiftly denied the accusations, taking to social media platform X (formerly Twitter) to release a statement. In it, Tucker emphatically denied the allegations, calling them “unequivocally false.” He also clarified that throughout his career, he has never been accused of misconduct, stating that he has never been asked to leave a massage session or been told he was unwelcome at any spa.
The NFL responded to the allegations by saying it would investigate the matter, but as of Saturday, the league had not offered further comment on the situation.
Spa Allegations
One of the new accusers, a massage therapist who worked at the upscale QG spa in downtown Baltimore, provided the Baltimore Banner with an internal report that she claims was written following her interactions with Tucker in 2015. The report allegedly stated that the therapist no longer felt “safe or comfortable working with him.” The report was signed by a supervisor, according to the therapist. The spa’s owner, however, told the Baltimore Banner through an attorney that he was unaware of any such complaints made against Tucker during the time in question.
Additionally, two former employees of the same spa have come forward, corroborating the claims of inappropriate behavior by Tucker. Their allegations further intensify the scrutiny surrounding the Ravens kicker.
Legal Representation and Response
The Baltimore Banner article also revealed that six of the massage therapists accusing Tucker of misconduct are represented by an attorney who specializes in sexual abuse and harassment cases. This attorney is expected to pursue legal action on behalf of the accusers.
Tucker’s legal team has maintained its stance, referring back to the statement Tucker made on Thursday in response to the new allegations. In his statement, Tucker stressed his commitment to professionalism throughout his career and reiterated his denial of any inappropriate conduct. His legal representation continues to assert that the claims against him are false and that he has never been involved in any incidents of misconduct, especially in the context of massage therapy sessions.
The Ravens Organization’s Response
The Ravens organization has also commented on the allegations, with a spokesperson acknowledging the situation in a statement released Thursday. The team emphasized its commitment to taking all allegations of this nature seriously and vowed to continue monitoring the developing situation. Despite the gravity of the claims, the Ravens have not made any additional statements on Tucker’s status or the potential impact on his career with the team.
Justin Tucker’s Career Overview
Tucker, who signed with the Ravens as an undrafted free agent in 2012 after his college career at the University of Texas, has since established himself as one of the most accomplished kickers in NFL history. He holds the record for the highest field goal percentage in league history and has made seven Pro Bowl appearances. Tucker was also part of the Ravens’ Super Bowl XLVII-winning team during the 2012 season, adding to his impressive football legacy.
As the investigation continues, the focus remains on how these allegations will impact both Tucker’s career and the Ravens organization. The allegations have already stirred significant attention, and further developments will likely unfold in the coming days.
