Adam Anderson’s attorney releases statement strongly denying rape allegation against Georgia LB

Adam Anderson, through his attorney, is strongly denying the allegation of rape being investigated by Athens police.

Anderson’s attorney released a statement to Seth Emerson of The Athletic. Emerson shared a screenshot of the statement on Twitter.

“Adam denies in the strongest terms possible the unfounded and unsupported allegations of sexual misconduct. He has been notified of the allegations made to the police and to the UGA Equal Opportunity Office (EOO), and has come to learn that the complainant has already apparently made inconsistent claims – that she was “unconscious” during the conduct to the EOO but “awoke” from sleep by the conduct to the police.

“In the interest of justice and fairness, Adam hopes and prays the UGA community and the public keep an open mind and not prejudge him based on inconsistent, unsubstantiated and baseless accusations.”

News broke Thursday that Athens-Clarke County police are investigating a rape allegation against Anderson. The police have made not made an arrest or filed charges. Georgia, however, has reportedly suspended Anderson indefinitely while the matter is being investigated.
