Pitino Brings Up 9/11 While Apologizing for Affair

Pitino Brings Up 9/11 While Apologizing for Affair

Coach Rick Pitino took a page out Rudy Giuliani's playbook while addressing revelations that he had an affair and paid for the abortion of a woman who then tried to extort him for millions. After apologizing to family, friends, fans and colleagues in his statement, Pitino then took a sharp turn while thanking the Lousiville community which he arrived into after being hired in 2001. He said, "When 9/11 hit, you needed a community to get you over it. In New York City, it was easy because everybody knew the devastation of that and they got each other over it. In Louisville, the impact wasn't felt like New York City, but I needed this community to help me get over it." You can't fault the logic of using 9/11 if you wanna knock abortion out of the headlines—especially when new quotes from Karen Cunagin Sypher, the woman who accuses the coach of rape, now include this one: "He made me murder my child. It should sicken the public and it devastated my children...I wanted to have the baby but Rick said if I did, my children would all be in concrete." Sypher has released a phone message Pitino left her, but in it he only encourages Sypher to make her own decision about the pregnancy. more ›

Rick Pitino Admits To Paying For Mistress's Abortion

Rick Pitino Admits To Paying For Mistress's Abortion

Former Knicks coach and current head coach of Big East powerhouse Louisville Rick Pitino is mired in an extortion scandal where it has come out that he had an affair inside a Kentucky restaurant and then paid for the woman to have an abortion. Karen Cunagin Sypher was indicted back in April of attempting to extort Pitino for $10 million. She had since responded to the charges with her own claims that the coach had raped her inside a restaurant and at a second location in 2003. Now the Louisville Courier-Journal obtained police interviews where Pitino admits to having sex with her at the restaurant after its employees had left; an assistant coach on-hand also told police that he heard "only the sounds of two people that seemed to be enjoying themselves during a sexual encounter." The Long Island native Pitino, a married father of five and Catholic who has a priest travel around with his team, then admitted to paying $3,000 for Sypher to have an abortion because she did not have health insurance, an anecdote unlikely to be brought up by the president in his current town hall meetings. Sypher pleaded not guilty to the extortion charges and prepares to go for trial. Sources say Pitino has no plans to take a leave of absence from Louisville. more ›

Teen Model From Teacher Sex Scandal Now In Handcuffs

Teen Model From Teacher Sex Scandal Now In Handcuffs

Remember Joshua Walter, the teen fashion model from Queens who made headlines last fall after his 37-year-old lover, a former teacher, sued the city for firing her over their affair? He's back in the news, and if you recall the way he dealt with tabloid reporters outside his house in November— "You want to see assault? Turn that thing off!"—you won't be too surprised by the latest turn of events. Walter, now 20 and a dad, was arrested late Wednesday night with three others and charged with robbing 15 gas stations and delis in Queens and Greenpoint. According to the Post, they all confessed. The spree began June 14th and ended on Sunday at a Dunkin' Donuts on Horace Harding Expressway, where Walter allegedly pistol-whipped one of the victims. Police spotted the crew around 1:30 a.m. Thursday in a maroon Chevy Astro van matching the description of the getaway car; after being pulled over the young men ran but were quickly apprehended, and a .380-caliber automatic handgun was found in the van. Approached by the Daily News outside her Queens home, Walter's poor mother shouted, "I got something to say: Leave my family alone!" more ›

Upstate Assemblyman Scandal Update:  "Intern" was 24

Upstate Assemblyman Scandal Update: "Intern" was 24

Some new details about the relationship Assemblyman Sam Hoyt (D-Buffalo) had with a former Legislative intern. The Post now reports the intern, Lori Gladwell, was 24 and "wrapping up a six-month internship with another legislator" when the affair with the married Hoyt started in May 2003. Her lawyer said, "This is a personal matter that concluded three years ago...My client has moved on with her life, and she hopes that all parties do the same." Hoyt, who says he did nothing wrong, is currently under investigation by the Ethics Committee, because there's a strict no-fraternization rule between interns and lawmakers (the law wasn't put in place until 2004, after another lawmaker slept at an intern's hotel room because he was too drunk to drive). The Buffalo News has an interesting article about the controversy--Hoyt's lawyer think the attacks are coming from his primary challenger, Barbara Kavanaugh. more ›
