First there was the al-Jazeera report on PEDs in sport with one witness fingering Peyton Manning as having bought HGH fro a clinic where the witness was working. After that, Manning hired heavy-hitter publicist Ari Fleischer to represent him.
Now the news is lighting up over a different and older story. The best coverage plus some detective work is here: www.washingtonpost.com/news/sports/wp/2016/02/19/the-mysterious-1994-incident-between-peyton-manning-and-a-tennessee-trainer/
No criminal charges were ever filed. There was a settlement between the University of Tennessee and the complainant who alleged sexual assault, Dr. Naughtright, followed in 2002 by a lawsuit by Dr. Naughtright when the Mannings had a ghostwritten book published that made certain accusations against Naughtright, despite an apparent agreement that neither party demean the other following the sexual assault incident.
Much of the details from the 2002 lawsuit were redacted or withheld from filing as a public record by the attorneys. But Washington Post reporters have done a good job of detective work in inferring what the missing material was about. Good read.
There was an earlier incident between Manning and Naughtright that is undescribed and unknown. It is inferred that Manning was caught cheating in some way and that Naughtright, who was a guest lecturer in that class, reported him. The university and the arhletic department apparently buried the accusation. Later Manning is alleged to have draped his genitalia and buttocks over his trainer, Naughtright, when she was bent over examining Mannings leg for a possible sprain. This incident ended with some kind of agreement or settlement with Naughtright, who left the University of Tennessee.
Not all complimentary to Manning or to the University of Tennessee. See www.nydailynews.com/news/national/king-peyton-manning-squeaky-clean-image-built-lies-article-1.2530395 which has the 74 page "Facts of the Case" filed in opposition to Defendant Mannings' motion to dismiss.
And now there is a new lawsuit against the Univ of Tennessee by several female plaintiffs alleging Title IX violations. That suit cites a pattern of discrimination and violations by the university going back to the Naughtright case.
