The attorney for Conor McGregor’s sexual assault accuser charged the UFC fighter wasn’t the only party at fault as new allegations, including an attempted six-figure hush money payment from the NBA, were leveled.
It’s been nearly two weeks since game four of the NBA Finals that ultimately saw the Denver Nuggets victorious over the Miami Heat. While the postseason may have ended, both the league and the city of Miami remained in the news as attorney Ariel Mitchell said her client was turned away by police after being offered $100,000 to stay quiet about her assault claims against McGregor.
Speaking with the Daily Mail, the lawyer explained that, “Some of the security guards who stood by when this happened were not McGregor’s. They were hired by the Heat.”
“They decided to cater to a celebrity instead of protecting a young woman in trouble,” Mitchell alleged as she claimed, “The NBA offered us $100,000 to keep this quiet.”
While the NBA’s chief communications officer Mike Bass told the Mail, “This claim is categorically false,” Mitchell insisted, “They rescinded the offer when the news broke.”
As previously reported, after an on-court spectacle at Miami’s Kaseya Center featured McGregor pummeling the Heat’s mascot Burnie to the ground during a halftime promotion for body spray, the fighter was seen entering a restroom with a woman who later accused him of forcing her to perform oral sex on him. However, after he allegedly attempted further sex acts with her, the two were seen together talking.

Mitchell defended their appearance together after the clip came out and said, “My client has always stated that there would be video of before and after, and in those videos she emphasized that the difference in the interactions between them would be visibly noticeable.”
The accusations extended past the NBA to the Miami Police Department as the attorney depicted law enforcement repeatedly turning her client away when initially leveling charges of sexual assault.
The woman didn’t deny that she would have been willing to “go home with” the fighter but contended she had been misled about where they were going when she was taken by the hand into the bathroom. When she arrived home, Mitchell said her client was “upset about it. She had a talk with her family and she decided to go to the police.”
However, her first effort at “the police precinct where she lives” was a bust as “they told her to go to another precinct where this happened. So, that’s one rejection of a sexual assault victim.”
“Then at the rightful precinct, she walked in shortly after 4:30 p.m. and, half an hour later, she was walked out of the police station,” Mitchell claimed saying a detective “walked her out of the building in no time. The detective told her to hire an attorney before she files a police complaint. He told her: ‘If you file today, this will go viral.’ Of course, that convinced her to wait, and that’s not good for the investigation.”
“How would it go viral if police themselves did not report this to the media?” the attorney asked.
While she claimed her client has had to flee the state facing death threats, McGregor has denied the incident and the Heat released a statement that read, “We are aware of the allegations and are conducting a full investigation, we will withhold further comment.”
