The rape lawsuit against Juventus star Cristiano Rinaldo has been dropped, according to a report from Bloomberg on Wednesday. A notice voluntary dismissal was filled last month in Neveda state court in Las Vegas. In September 2018, Kathryn Mayorga, now 34, claimed the Juventus player had attacked her in the penthouse of a Las Vegas hotel in 2009 when she was 25 and was paid $375,000 in hush money. She said she was forced to sign a non-disclosure agreement by Ronaldo's lawyers at the time, but reopened the case and filed charges in Las Vegas, demanding $200,000 in damages.
