Rick Pitino Likes Good Restaurant Tables
Remember that crazy lady who was supposedly extorting Louisville head basketball coach Rick Pitino for millions of dollars? The chick whose nefariousness Pitino was “vigorously defending his reputation” and “protecting the character of his family” from?
You know, this chick?
Well, according to recently-released police documents, Pitino had sex with her on the table of an upscale Louisville restaurant, got her pregnant and then paid her $3,000 to have an abortion. The documents also indicate that one of Pitino’s assistant coaches witnessed the couple having sex.
Pitino, a Roman Catholic who is married with five children, could be in hot water not only on the homefront but also with the brass at Louisville – a school whose basketball team he has taken to back-to-back “Elite 8″ appearances. That’s because his contract has a morality clause in it, one that specifically references acts of dishonesty and moral depravity.
For now, Louisville President James Ramsey is simply calling the new revelations “surprising.”
The woman, 49-year-old Karen Sypher, says Pitino raped her at the restaurant – and then raped her again several weeks later when she met him at the home of a Louisville equipment manager.
According to the documents, Pitino admits to having sex with Sypher at the resaurant in 2003, but claims that Syper came on to him. He denies that he had sex with her a second time, and says the $3,000 he gave her was for health insurance.
