Thunder Guard Terrance Ferguson Sued Over Rape Allegations

The NBA offseason started only a few days ago, and already we have some scandalous news. Technically it happened a few years ago.

The lawsuit, which was filed last month in Oklahoma County District Court, alleges an Oklahoma City woman was in a consensual relationship with Ferguson, two years ago when he began pressuring her to have a threesome with his brother, Brandon Willis, The Oklahoman reported.

In September 2018, the woman alleged that Ferguson invited her to his home and again asked her to have sex with him and his brother at the same time. She once again declined, according to the lawsuit.

On the same day, while Ferguson and the woman were engaged in consensual sex, Willis allegedly entered Ferguson’s bedroom. According to the lawsuit, the woman was frightened and withdrew consent from future sexual contact with Ferguson.

Ferguson allegedly ignored her, and told her to “shut up and get on (her) knees,” according to the lawsuit.

The woman alleged that Ferguson forced her to perform oral sex on him while Willis forcibly penetrated her vagina. Willis is also being sued, and it is unclear if he or Ferguson has an attorney in the civil case.

The woman claims Ferguson also filmed the sexual assault without her consent and shared the footage with others on Snapchat, leaving her with “physical, emotional and psychological” injuries, according to the filing.

Oklahoma County prosecutors have decided not to charge Thunder guard Terrrance Ferguson who had been accused this year by a woman of rape.

“Evidence to support the reporting person’s allegations that the sexual conduct was not consensual was absent,” District Attorney David Prater said Saturday night.

His top sex crimes assistant made the decision to decline charges this month after Oklahoma City police completed an investigation.

The woman is seeking over $500,000 in losses due to “physical, emotional and psychological” injuries she suffered “as a direct consequence of their tortious conduct.”

The Thunder issued a statement upon the news that Ferguson wouldn’t be charged: “We were made aware of the situation, followed the protocols that are in place, and allowed the legal process to take its course.”

The team pointed back to that statement with the allegations going to civil court.
