Yesterday, allegations about Peterson’s charity arose. There were claims that Peterson used charity donations for personal use and that the embattled superstar’s brother participated in an orgy that included Chris Brown. Today, Peterson’s rep released a statement to set the record straight. Hit the jump for details.
Via TMZ:
Adrian Peterson did not use funds from his charity to pay for a hotel room where an orgy allegedly took place … and claims he’s never taken money from his charity for his own personal use.
The Minneapolis Star-Tribune reported this week, Peterson was accused of using a credit card linked to his charity to pay for a hotel room in 2011 for himself, his brother, his uncle and four women.
But a rep for Peterson’s foundation tells TMZ Sports … Peterson has never used a foundation credit card for any personal expenses. In fact, the rep says Peterson never even had a foundation credit card.
The report specifically names Peterson’s uncle as the one who used the credit card on a hotel room in 2011 … but the foundation rep says the uncle never had a card either.
Peterson also denies what took place in the hotel room was an “orgy,” but does admit some people had sex that night. His rep says the foundation has had some issues through the years, but since Adrian cleaned house in 2011 … it’s donated $1.4 million to charities.
