Rachelle Washington, the woman who accused New England Patriots wide receiver Randy Moss of assault and had a restraining order placed on him in mid-January has requested that the order be dissolved and the case dismissed. The restraining order had required the All-Pro wide receiver to stay at least 500 feet from Washington.
Moss always denied he harm Washington and that is was more nothing more than an accident. Moss attorney Richard Sharpstein says his client is “extremely pleased” and plans to submit Washington’s medical costs to his insurance company.
“There has finally been acknowledgment that the injuries were not intentionally inflicted,” Sharpstein said.
From Reiss’s Pieces:
Darrell Thompson, the lawyer for Rachelle Washington, issued the following statement tonight:
“I have read Mr. Sharpstein’s comments regarding an acknowledgement by my client and for the record, my client has not made any statements on the matter and no such acknowledgement exists. My client acting solely on the advice of her former attorney filed for the temporary restraining order against Mr. Moss. She has decided that such restraining order is unnecessary and has requested the order be dismissed. Because the injuries sustained were not the result of any malicious intent by Mr. Moss, a claim for her damages will be submitted to his insurance company.”
