Report: Winston’s accuser sought $7 million for silence
http://collegefootballtalk.nbcsports.com...r-silence/

Quote: In Florio’s post, he explains that, while Cornwell labels the $7 million demand as “extortion,” it’s simply business as usual in the civil process.

… it’s common for potential plaintiffs in civil lawsuits to demand cash in exchange for a waiver of potential legal claims and silence. Typically, the first number requested is ridiculously high. The defendant often responds with a number that is ridiculously low, and the two sides chip away at the divide until a deal is either reached, or not.

And that doesn't count as extortion?

RE: Report: Winston’s accuser sought $7 million for silence
Not surprised it took a week for this to make it to the board, nor that it's receiving zero interest. It's just one more additional bit of information that contributes to the continued discrediting this claim.

What about three part where the girl's aunt/attorney claims she knows it's rape because the girl would never sleep with no "black boy"? Nevermind that the second set of semen on her clothes that night was from her black boyfriend...
