Family unveils startling allegations!

A year following Dwayne Haskins’ passing, his family persists in their quest for understanding the final hours of his life. Filing a civil lawsuit, they introduce startling new allegations in April this year. Lawyer Rick Ellsley, representing the family, has crafted a lawsuit suggesting that Haskins might have been entangled in a pre-death blackmail conspiracy. In the lawsuit, Ellsley notes, “It is believed that Dwayne was targeted and drugged as part of a blackmail and robbery conspiracy.

The note further adds, “What occurred in the hours before Dwayne was killed, many questions remain unanswered.” This speculation is fortified by Haskins’ possession of a valuable watch, stolen shortly before his fatal incident. Haskins, the former NFL quarterback, lost his life in the early hours of April 9, 2022, struck by a dump truck while attempting to cross a Florida interstate on foot.
