Attorney Ariel Mitchell, who represents the woman alleging that UFC star Conor McGregor sexually assaulted her at an NBA Finals game, says the league offered money to keep her client quiet in the aftermath of the incident, according to a Thursday report from the Daily Mail . The Daily Mail, citing a source, said the hush money was in the amount of $100,000. “Some of the security guards who stood by when this happened were not McGregor’s. They were hired by the Heat,” Mitchell said. ‘They decided to cater to a celebrity instead of protecting a young woman in trouble.” Last week, in a demand letter sent to McGregor, the NBA and the Miami Heat, the woman accused McGregor of “violently” raping her while attending NBA Finals Game 4 on June 10 in Miami. The alleged sexual assault occurred inside a men’s bathroom at Kaseya Center, where McGregor made a promotional appearance in which he knocked out the Heat mascot during the game
