April 24, 200917 yr It doesn't really matter what else Pitino did if he didn't break the law. Doesn't matter to who? It may not matter to you or to the FBI, but it might matter to his wife. It obviously matters to this lady's mother. It matters I'm sure to a lot of people. It doesn't matter to me, but I have no vested interest in either party.

Probably matters to recruits or at least their parents. I'm sure it matters to UL AD and President.... how much so is yet to be determined, but breaking the law isn't all they're concerned about.
April 24, 200917 yr Ms. Sypher Charged with Extortion According to a criminal complaint filed in U.S District Court, Karen Sypher, with the help of unnamed others, tried to extort money from Pitino with threats to harm his reputation in connection with events that occurred in 2003. The complaint, filed by FBI agent Steven J. Wight, said she lied to the FBI when she told investigators that she didn’t know the identity of the person who was making threatening phone calls to Pitino. It gives no indication of the claims she was making. News organizations, including The Courier-Journal, have interviewed Karen Sypher but elected not to report the nature of her allegations because they could not be corroborated and because she didn’t make any complaints to police. Also, Clay said she would have no counterclaims against Pitino.

April 24, 200917 yr If he didn't do anything in 2003 why was he meeting her to see what her demands were? Why was her husband involved if nothing happened?
April 24, 200917 yr If he didn't do anything in 2003 why was he meeting her to see what her demands were? Why was her husband involved if nothing happened? Something obviously happened... It's also obvious that Pitino didn't do anything illegal...
April 24, 200917 yr Something obviously happened... It's also obvious that Pitino didn't do anything illegal... To me that was obvious when he involved the FBI. What is interesting to me is the husband was shocked at the allegations this week, but was handing Pitino demands for hush money last month. Really?
April 24, 200917 yr Author To me that was obvious when he involved the FBI. What is interesting to me is the husband was shocked at the allegations this week, but was handing Pitino demands for hush money last month. Really? Where does it say that the husband was handing Pitino demands for money?
April 24, 200917 yr What is interesting to me is the husband was shocked at the allegations this week, but was handing Pitino demands for hush money last month. Really? They were obviously Karen Sypher's demands, not the husbands. If that were the case, he would be involved in the charges as well.
April 24, 200917 yr Where does it say that the husband was handing Pitino demands for money? From the article given: According to the affidavit, they discussed the possibility of a house, cars and money. The affidavit goes on to say that Tim Sypher delivered to Pitino on March 6 a written list of demands from Karen Sypher calling for college tuition for her children, two cars of her choice, a house paid off, $3,000 cash per month and a lump-sum payment of $75,000 if Pitino leaves U of L.
