This DeShaun Watson story just keeps getting weirder. HPD is now investigating. The part that gets me:

Alright serious question. If you are representing basically a class action of massage therapists who felt violated by one man, why would you not feel comfortable cooperating with police? If their claims are legit, I would have no problem presenting all the evidence to HPD to see if criminal charges might apply.

I feel like with Watson, the truth is probably somewhere in the middle. There might be a few of these girls who had innocent interactions with Watson and are hoping to ride the money train, but I also think there have to be several who take their business seriously and were totally uncomfortable with Watson trying to hook up with them. The one story in particular about him getting an erection, then nutting on his stomach and the masseuse ending the massage and immediately telling the other therapist who gave her the referral (and her fam too) about it strikes me as true given the texts involved and the witness confirmation.

But Buzbee only makes himself look bad by saying he won't cooperate with police. It de-legitimizes their claims.
