Former NFL Star Dana Stubblefield Sentenced for Rape

2020 continues to suck, but for  some it’s  really been an absolute disaster.  The Santa Clara County District Attorney’s office confirmed that former 49er star Dan Stubblefield has been sentenced to 15-years to life for rape.

On July 27th a jury found Stubblefield guilty of an assault that happened in 2015 at his home.

According to court documents, the developmentally disabled victim was interviewing for a babysitting job on April 9, 2015, when the incident occurred.

The case was tied up for years in legal arguments centering on Jane Doe’s mental capacity.

The verdict declared Stubblefield was guilty of rape by force, menace or fear, and guilty of using a firearm in commission of the crime.

His attorneys had called the charges ‘absolutely ridiculous’ and said the accusations were motivated by money.

Stubblefield was placed in custody after the verdict was read.

Stubblefield spent seven seasons with the 49ers, three with Washington, and one with the Raiders. He made three Pro Bowls and once was All-Pro.
