With all the opportunists out there, it's always hard to tell when a celebrity is being victimized by false accusations, or whether or not they're true. NFL quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers Ben Roethlisberger is being accused of sexual assault by a 20-year-old woman.

The woman claims that the quarterback assualted her in the bathroom of Capital City nightclub in Milledgeville, Georgia. The alleged victim was treated at a hospital and released, while witnesses were interviewed as well as Roethlisberger himself. So far, he has not been charged with a crime.

 Ben's agent said: "We have spoken to law enforcement. Based on information currently available, an allegation was made against Ben, which appeared to be dismissed after a preliminary investigation last night. Obviously, given the prior accusation against Ben, we are skeptical of motive, but we will continue to cooperate with everyone involved."

Back in July of 2009, Andrea McNulty, an employee at the Harrah's hotel in Lake Tahoe,  claimed that she too  was sexually assualted by Roethlisberger. Though no criminal complaints were filed, she has sued the quarterback though the case is currently on hold.
