Report: Pitino tells cops he paid for abortion
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Louisville men's basketball coach Rick Pitino told
police he had sex with a woman accused of trying to extort him of $10
million and later paid for her abortion, a newspaper reported Tuesday.
The
Courier-Journal of Louisville published on its Web site that Pitino
told police he had been drinking in a Louisville restaurant and had
consensual sex with Karen Sypher in August 2003. The police report said

Sypher
reported the rape allegations to police last month, but a Kentucky

charges of lying to the FBI and trying to extort money from Pitino, who
is married
