For the first time since being accused of sexual assault, former Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Trevor Bauer is speaking about the claims.
Claims from both Bauer and his accuser, Lindsay Hill, have been 'withdrawn with prejudice' according to lawyers.
Bauer, who spent this past season playing in Japan after being cut from the Dodgers, posted an in-depth video showing messages allegedly sent by his accuser.
He says that Hill - who accused him of beating and sexually assaulting her - sent messages to friends saying that he would be her 'next victim' and asked a friend 'What should I steal?'
Bauer said that she made the statement about him being her 'next victim' in a text that was sent 'before she ever even met me' and that she was advised to 'take his money'.
After finding out Bauer's net worth ($51million at the time), Hill said she would try to get some of his money by 'being an absolute w***e to try to get in on his 51million' and that she would 'need Daddy to choke me out'.
Bauer said that Hill's AA sponsor asked her if she felt guilty, to which she replied 'not really'.
All of these messages and other 'critical information' were 'deliberately and unlawfully concealed from me and my legal team', according to Bauer.
That includes a video recorded by Hill showing herself laying in bed next to the pitcher as he slept.
Bauer says this video was 'taken by Lindsay Hill herself the morning after she claimed she was brutally attacked, emotionally traumatized, and desperate to get away from me.
'And now we have the metadata, so there can be no dispute it was taken mere minutes before she left my house on the morning of May 16, 2021, without my knowledge or consent, of course.
'In it, you can see her lying in bed next to me while I'm sleeping, smirking at the camera without a care in the world or any marks on her face.'
In August of 2021, a judge in Los Angeles Superior Court denied Hill a restraining order saying that Bauer 'did not coerce her or threaten her into sexual activity.'
