Allegheny County DA Reaches Out To Lawyer Representing Antonio Brown's Accuser Britney Taylor
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- The Allegheny County District Attorney has reached out to the lawyer representing Britney Taylor, the woman who accused Antonio Brown of multiple sexual misconduct incidents.

"Sources: The Allegheny County DA & PD reached out to the lawyer for Antonio Brown's accuser Britney Taylor regarding the 1st and 2nd alleged incidents. The DA confirmed this to NFL Network via @HollowClay. There is a statue of limitations with both Allegheny Co incidents however."
The District Attorney's office released a statement to KDKA regarding the situation:
"Our office, along with the Allegheny County Police Department, made contact with counsel for the plaintiff in the federal lawsuit involving Antonio Brown. Procedurally, it appears there is a statute of limitations issue in moving forward with any inquiry involving the Allegheny County allegation mentioned in the lawsuit."
"What this means is that, at least for the first two alleged offenses committed by Antonio Brown, there will be no criminal inquiry. That is potentially significant, as it relates to his eligibility and status to continue playing."
Brown is accused of two instances of sexual misconduct against Britney Taylor in recent years. No criminal charges were ever filed in the situation, and Taylor recently filed a civil suit surrounding the alleged allegations.
On top of that, multiple civil cases are still open against Brown for other inappropriate behavior, as well as payment issues with many people who worked for Brown.
