Police Detective Testifies Against Deshaun Watson

Just when Deshaun Watson thought he was out of the woods, he got some more bad news.

Earlier in the month, a 24th massage therapist came out alleging sexual assault against the Browns quarterback, and has since filed a lawsuit.

Now, a report claims a police detective has testified against Deshaun Watson in court.

Per Brent Schrotenboer of USA Today:

“The detective, Kamesha Baker, said she expressed her opinion to the Harris County District Attorney’s Office. But she wasn’t called to testify before the grand jury in Harris County, Texas, and doesn’t know why the grand jury didn’t indict the Cleveland Browns quarterback on criminal charges. She said she believed Watson committed criminal indecent assault, sexual assault and prostitution in cases where money was exchanged and there was consensual sex.

“Did you feel confident that you had the evidence needed to pursue those charges?” Baker was asked in the deposition.

“Yes,” Baker said.

“And was there any doubt in your mind as the investigating officer that a crime had occurred?”

“No,” Baker said.”

The detective would go on to say that she shared her beliefs that the accounts from the alleged victims were credible with prosecutor Johna Stallings.

“I expressed to her that we did find the complainants credible and reliable,” Baker testified, according to the transcript. “That’s why we did a warrant that stated they were credible and reliable.”

For now, Deshaun Watson still has not been suspended by the NFL, but his story is looking worse and worse by the day.
