DERRICK ROSE LAWSUITLOS ANGELES -- Lawyers for NBA star Derrick Rose and two friends accused of raping an incapacitated woman doubled down on their assertions that the accuser willingly had sex with the trio, saying she performed sex acts on the men earlier that night at Roses mansion in Beverly Hills.In sharp contrast to the opening statement in the civil case from the womans lawyer who called the incident a classic gang rape, the defense described an August 2013 scene for jurors in Los Angeles federal court that sounded like a porn movie.They said the woman gave lap dances earlier under a sky full of stars by the side of Roses pool overlooking city lights, performed oral sex on Rose and had sex with his two friends before inviting them back to her apartment.The womans lawyer said the story about her having sex earlier in the night was falsely concocted to try to show she was insatiable and wanted to have sex with the men later that night. He said the three got into her apartment in the early morning hours after she passed out from drinking and raped her while she faded in and out of consciousness.AARON HERNANDEZBOSTON -- Lawyers for former New England Patriots star Aaron Hernandez asked a judge on Wednesday to prevent the jury at his upcoming double murder trial from hearing descriptions of the shooter from two witnesses who were inside a car prosecutors say Hernandez sprayed with bullets.Hernandez is scheduled to go on trial in February in the 2012 killings of two Boston men prosecutors allege he shot after an encounter at a nightclub.
