The renowned kicker of the Baltimore Ravens, Justin Tucker, is embroiled in a growing controversy after three new massage therapists accused him of sexually inappropriate behavior. These accusations add to six others that had already emerged earlier, totaling nine allegations against him.
The therapists claim to have experienced discomfort and harassment during massage sessions that took place between 2012 and 2016 in five different spas and wellness centers. Some mentioned having prematurely ended sessions or having refused to work with Tucker again. Two managers of the spas confirmed that they had banned the player at the time due to such complaints.
Justin Tucker has vigorously denied any kind of inappropriate behavior. In a statement, the kicker stated he has never received formal complaints from any massage therapist nor been informed that he was "banned" from any establishment.
The allegations against Tucker are serious and detailed, including exposure of genitals, non-consensual physical contact, and ejaculation during massage sessions. If confirmed, these facts could constitute a serious violation of NFL conduct codes.
The NFL has announced that it will conduct an investigation to clarify the facts, while the Baltimore Ravens have also expressed their awareness of the allegations and their commitment to closely monitor the investigative process.
This case has placed Justin Tucker under public scrutiny, who had previously been recognized mainly for his skills on the field. The outcome of the investigation could significantly impact his image and professional career.
