Adrian Peterson Hit by Booze-Fueled Orgy Allegation

Adrian Peterson, the Minnesota Vikings running back sidelined by a child-abuse charge, faces a new report of old allegations involving a booze-fueled, and nonprofit-subsidized, orgy.

The Minneapolis Star-Tribune posted a lengthy article today on the running back’s brushes with the law that focused on a 2011 allegation of a hotel bacchanal involving booze, group sex, Peterson’s underage brother, a rape allegation, and a charity’s credit card subsidizing the X-rated party.  

The 38-page police report details a night of drinking, arguing and sex that involved the running back, two relatives — including Peterson’s brother, a minor — and four women, in various pairs. One of those present, Chris Brown, a Peterson relative who lives with him in Eden Prairie, told police that he paid for the room using a company credit card for Peterson’s All Day, Inc.

As the night wore on, the report says, one woman who said she knew Peterson previously became upset when she saw him having sex with another woman. She started an argument that lasted at least an hour. According to the report, when she told him that she was “emotionally attached to him,” Peterson reminded her that he was engaged to another woman and had a baby.

The next day one of the women filed a police complaint that was investigated for months. Peterson insisted on his innocence and, at one point, arrived to provide evidence at police headquarters through a back door, his face shrouded by the hood of his sweatshirt.

His attorney, Peter Wold, arranged for Peterson to take a polygraph test, and said he quickly passed and that he also tested “clean” for drugs.

The 29-year-old running back won the 2012 NFL MVP award. His 10,190 rushing yards tops all Vikings backs in the franchise’s 53-year history.

Peterson faces a court date in the child-abuse case on Wednesday. He maintains his innocence in both the abuse charges and the investigated but not pursued allegations involving an alcohol-fueled sex party that spawned a rape allegation.
