Larry Johnson Sued Yet Again!

Kansas City Chiefs Running Back Larry Johnson is in trouble... AGAIN. And... AGAIN... his troubles stem from his blatant disrespect for women. This time, Johnson is being sued by a woman who accuses him of spitting a drink in her face at a bar and threatening to kill her and her boyfriend.

Ashley N. Stewart, 24, filed the lawsuit Monday claiming negligence, assault and battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress and negligent infliction of emotional distress. She seeks punitive damages and attorney fees, as reported by the Associated Press. Johnson was charged last month with simple assault for the incident that occurred Oct. 10 at Kansas City's Club Blonde.

"This is not about money," said Kirra N. Jones, Stewart's attorney. "My client has worked her way through school. She's in the Air Force, National Guard. She's a hardworking student and this really came as an unfortunate incident in her life. But you know what? She's a fighter. She's willing to be the person who finally makes Larry Johnson answer for his repeatedly bad behavior."

According to the lawsuit, Johnson offered to buy Stewart a shot of alcohol on Oct. 3, but she declined. A week later, she alleged, Johnson became belligerent toward her and said, "All I wanted to tell you is I'm going to kill your boyfriend." <---*Doesn't make sense, sounds like they knew each other???* Stewart claims Johnson also said, "I'm gonna kill you, too. First I'm gonna kill your boyfriend, then I'm going to kill you and that's a promise."

She says that as she was backing away from him, Johnson took a drink from his glass and spit it in her face, then his two bodyguards tackled her. The suit claims that Johnson tried three more times to spit on Stewart as he was walking to his car with his bodyguards. It was the fourth time in five years that Johnson has been accused of assaulting a woman. He has a Dec. 4 court date for allegedly pushing a woman's face at another Kansas City night spot in February. I'm tellin ya'll, these athletes, rappers, whoever are getting waaaaaaay beside themselves with this mess! And they wonder why women are turning gay or to other races? Boi STOP!
