According to The Baltimore Banner, Tucker’s attorneys, Thomas A. Clare and Steven J. Harrison of the firm Clare Locke, denied he’s been banned from any spas and rejected the women’s allegations. In a letter on January 28, they stated, “Mr. Tucker has never behaved inappropriately during any massage therapy session, and certainly never in the manner described.”
The accusations of Tucker’s alleged misconduct occurred from 2012 to 2016.
The new allegations are reportedly, “largely similar to those of the women who came forward earlier, including that he had an erection for most of the massage, intentionally and repeatedly exposed his genitals and brushed some of the therapists’ thighs with his fingers. One of the seven new women said he left what appeared to be ejaculate on the massage table after his session. The women also provided similar details that The Banner had not previously reported. One said Tucker made intense eye contact throughout the massage while exposed, and others said he used his erect penis to move the sheet.”
On January 31, one day after the first report of Tucker’s alleged inappropriate sexual behavior, NFL spokesperson Brian McCarthy said in a statement: “We first became aware of the allegations from the reporter investigating this story as they were not previously shared with the NFL. We take any allegation seriously and will look into the matter.”
