Cubs owner hopes Castro case resolved ‘shortly’
Chicago Cubs owner Tom Ricketts said Thursday that he hopes the ongoing investigation into sexual assault allegations against shortstop Starlin Castro is resolved “shortly.”
“I really can’t comment on any of Starlin’s stuff,” Ricketts said on “The Carmen, Jurko & Harry Show” on ESPN 1000. “I think you just have to refer back to his statements and our statements, and we just hope it’s behind us shortly.”
The Chicago Police Department interviewed Castro on Jan. 12. WBBM reported that a woman in her 20s, who had met Castro at a nightclub on Sept. 29, accused Castro of sexually assaulting her.
Castro denied the allegations through his representatives, and he hasn’t been arrested.
