- 5 years ago
Portuguese soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo will face no charges of rape in Las Vegas.
According to Reuters, it's in connection with a 10-year-old sexual assault allegation.
Kathryn Mayorga filed a civil lawsuit in 2018 in state court in Nevada.
She accused Ronaldo of raping her in a Las Vegas hotel in 2009, then paying her $375,000 in hush money.
Prosecutors said Monday the charge will not stand because the case cannot be proven beyond a reasonable doubt.
