The women, who are identified in court documents as Jane Doe 1 and Jane Doe 2, alleged that McManus had sexually assaulted them on the flight. They claimed that McManus had pressured them into sexual acts and that he had a history of similar behavior. The judge’s decision was based on the fact that the women did not provide sufficient evidence to support their claims. The judge also noted that the women’s identities were not protected by any legal precedent or statute.

The allegations against McManus, who is a former NFL player, stem from a 2019 incident where he allegedly engaged in a physical altercation with a woman. The incident occurred at a bar in the Tri-state area. McManus, who played for the New York Giants and the Buffalo Bills, has denied any wrongdoing. He has also stated that he was not the aggressor in the incident. The allegations against McManus are being investigated by the NFL. The league has not yet released any official statements regarding the allegations.
