DALLAS —The attorney defending the son of Los Angeles Angels outfielder
Torii Hunter in a sexual assault case said Thursday he has a recorded telephone
conversation during which the boys 16-year-old accuser recants the allegation.
Eric Decker Authentic Jersey . Todd Shapiro,
the attorney for 17-year-old Darius McClinton-Hunter, told reporters that a
recording was made Wednesday of a conversation between the girl and a teenage
friend of the Hunter family. On the call, she backs away from the story that led
police in the Dallas suburb of Prosper to arrest McClinton-Hunter on Monday, the
attorney said. “The alleged victim has done a complete 180 turn,” Shapiro said.
In a statement, Prosper police spokesman Celso Martinez said the departments
investigation of the case will continue but no details will be released. A
message was left seeking comment from the Collin County district attorneys
office. Torii Hunter has been away from the Angels since his sons arrest. He and
his son attended a Thursday news conference but didnt speak. McClinton-Hunter
was among five youths arrested in the case, which police said followed a
monthlong investigation. McClinton-Hunter and three others were charged with
sexual assault of a child, a second-degree felony. The other youth was arrested
for unlawful restraint of a child, a state jail felony. A second-degree felony
in Texas carries a sentence of between two and 20 years in prison. Shapiro said
the teenage girl can be heard on the tape saying no sex occurred, forced or
otherwise. “It just could not be more clear,” he said. Shapiro said the call was
recorded by a teen who is close to McClinton-Hunter and his two brothers. The
attorney called the youth “an extraordinary young man who had the foresight and
wisdom to record the call.” Phone calls can be legally taped in Texas with one
partys consent. Shapiro said the alleged victim initiated the call. Two
conversations, separated by minutes, occurred, he said. “She reached out to him
to, we believe, set the record straight,” Shapiro said. The attorney said he
will not release the tape publicly but will turn it over to authorities.
According to Shapiro, the alleged victim has accused McClinton-Hunter of
sexually assaulting her in a closet at a time when another youth was present.
Shapiro said the youth who was in the closet at the time stated under oath at a
juvenile hearing that McClinton-Hunter didnt have sex with the alleged victim.
McClinton-Hunter plays football at Prosper High School. He is a receiver who
reportedly has attracted interest from several colleges, including Texas Tech,
West Virginia and SMU. Shapiro said he will ask authorities to drop the charges
and issue an apology to McClinton-Hunter and his family. “The future (for
McClinton-Hunter) is bright, and we want to make sure he can continue down that
road,” the attorney said. Von Miller Game Jersey . The ordeal has left
