“@shadymccoy is THE DEVIL!!!! YOU ARE AN ANIMAL!!!!!! We didn’t say anything about how you beat your dog ‘Henny’ into kidney failure,” the woman wrote. “Let’s not talk about all the times my best friend had to stop you from VICIOUSLY beating your son for small things like peeing in the bed. We kept quiet about your drug usage … all the ILLEGAL steroids and needles you were using, but we will not keep quiet about this!!!!!!”
McCoy denied the allegations on Twitter.

I have no idea if LeSean McCoy did this (if he did there's almost no punishment too great). But aren't these things supposed to start with at least a police report, and not an Instragram post (even as horrendous as it) from the victim's friend? That seems rather odd, no? https://t.co/NclaBrzAJ7

If alleged account is true, LeSean McCoy is:
1. A domestic abuser
2. A child abuser
3. Violating illicit drug policy
4. Violating PED policy
5. Abuses animalsHe would be 5 tool NFL policy violator, a criminal, & horrible example of a man, father, partner, teammate & citizen. https://t.co/FoonhzML5X

This isn’t the first accusation McCoy has faced.
The former University of Pittsburgh star was also sued by a woman in 2013 who claimed that he assaulted her before kicking her off a party bus in New Jersey. However, McCoy’s lawyer said at the time no criminal charges were pending and probable cause was never found.
The Bills were aware of the McCoy allegations and were investigating, a source told ESPN.
Here’s the Bills’ statement. It’s brief.

I don’t know WHO’S lying here, but this certainly needs to be investigated immediately.
Update: Here’s a statement from an attorney representing LeSean McCoy’s ex-girlfriend, Delicia Cordon:
Cordon returned from a trip to London on July 9, 2018. At approximately 3:00 a.m. on this morning, while she was sleeping in the residence that she shares with Mr. McCoy, Ms. Cordon was physically assaulted in the home by a male assailant who entered the home with no signs of forced entry. The assailant demanded specific items of jewelry that had been previously gifted to Ms. Cordon by Mr. McCoy, which Mr. McCoy had requested back on many occasions. In fact, after Ms. Cordon refused to return her jewelry gifts to Mr. McCoy, he would often suggest to Ms. Cordon that she could be robbed because the jewelry was expensive.
In the attack this morning, Ms. Cordon’s wrist was bruised when the assailant could not get the bracelets off her wrist, and he hit Ms. Cordon in the face with a firearm multiple times while demanding specific items of jewelry and cash from her. Ms. Cordon sustained multiple injuries to her head, face and arms during this horrendous attack. Additionally, Ms. Cordon’s female cousin was at the residence, and she too was hit in the back of her head by the assailant with the firearm. Due to an ongoing criminal investigation into this incident, Ms. Cordon will have no further comment at this time.
Basically, they’re implying that he’s responsible for what happened.
Former Bills offensive lineman Richie Incognito is coming to McCoy’s defense.

I support and stand by my boy, Shady. I know the full story and he didn't do it. People can be quick to make false assumptions without knowing the full story.
