Fine allegations | Allred, Davis to hold news conference regarding request to NY attorney general

Bobby Davis and attorney Gloria Allred will hold a news conference Friday to discuss a request made to New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman to open an investigation into Syracuse University.

The conference will take place at 12:30 p.m. in New York City, at 305 Broadway, Suite 607, according to a news release issued by Allred Thursday. Davis and Allred will explain why they believe it is important Schneiderman investigates into whether or not SU violated a law that failed to protect children.

Her request is based in part on facts and conclusions in SU’s own 2005 report that was released earlier this month to the Board of Trustees, according to the release.

Davis, a former SU ball boy, alleges he was molested by former men’s basketball associate head coach Bernie Fine.

Fine was fired from the university in November. He has denied all wrongdoing and has not been charged.
