Deshaun Watson Being Investigated By The FBI?

“They contacted me and I’ve met with them three times now and now they’ve met with several of the plaintiffs in the case,” Buzbee said.

“Let’s be clear, when somebody comes into your office on the 73rd floor of the Chase Tower, whether they’re the FDA or the FBI, it’s a big deal,” Buzbee told Amy Dash of leagueofjustice.com. “Well, it was the FBI. . . . They contacted me and I’ve met with them three times now and now they’ve met with several of the plaintiffs in the case.”

Deshaun Watson’s lawyer, Rusty Hardin, has refuted the claim that the FBI is looking into the allegations.

“I have absolutely no reason to believe that Deshaun is being investigated by the FBI,” Hardin said.

“Mr. Buzbee’s comments are just part of a long, continuing pattern of just trying to harm Deshaun in the public perception. It is despicable conduct and I hope one day people will hold him accountable when the whole truth comes out.”

We’ll continue to monitor the troubling Deshaun Watson case.
