Jameis Winston files a counterclaim in court saying he did not rape Erica Kinsman

Jameis Winston has one of the best sports attorney’s of all time in David Cornwell, and today Cornwell is working hard trying to clear his client.  

Cornwell filed a counterclaim lawsuit for his client Jameis Winston, the Buccaneers first overall pick saying Winston did not rape a woman who is suing him and that she is motivated by greed.

The counterclaim was filed against Erica Kinsman in court in Orlando for the Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback, now with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Kinsman, a former student at Florida State, filed suit against Winston last month, saying she was intoxicated at a Tallahassee bar in December 2012 when Winston and others took her back to an off-campus apartment and that he sexually assaulted her. 

Her lawsuit, filed two weeks before the April 30 NFL draft, accused Winston of rape, assault, false imprisonment and emotional distress.
