^^ Dube will never be "found innocent". He could be found not guilty. But even if he is, I haven't seen anywhere where he could "recoup a lot of money". Even if someone said, "yeah he's a rapist" and he gets acquitted, he can't win that lawsuit. Kyle Rittenhouse made threats to sue people who called him a murderer and the analysis by most defamation lawyers is that you can still say that if it's legit your opinion. You are simply disagreeing with the verdict and saying what you think he is.

And I don't think he can sue a team if they terminate his contract prematurely. That's collective bargaining - it has to be done through a union grievance. That's part of the bargain you make being in a union.
