Laremy Tunsil attorney: We don’t think stepdad was behind hacking
Though he didn’t sound 100 percent convinced, the lawyer for new Miami Dolphins tackle Laremy Tunsil says he does not believe Tunsil’s estranged stepfather was behind the draft-night hacking of his client’s social media accounts.
“Initially, that would be the low-hanging fruit,” attorney Steve Farese told SiriusXM, “But it’s so counter-intuitive that if that were the case it didn’t make any sense. Now I’ve drifted away from those thoughts and don’t believe he had anything to do with this.”
So it doesn’t sound like they have proof that Lindsay Miller, Tunsil’s stepfather, wasn’t involved, but as he continued talking to host Lance Meadow, it didn’t sound like Farese had many answers at this point, and isn’t pursuing the truth very aggressively.
If it wasn’t Miller, Meadow asked Farese, then who was it?
“Well, certainly someone who is very vindictive,” Farese said. “There’s rumors out there about some financial agent, but that’s only something I read. Until we get to the facts of the situation, who can say?”
Farese went on to say, “I think in the next week or so, we’ll probably figure out who the culprit is.”
Setting aside the fact that Farese seems disinterested in getting to the bottom of a scandal that cost his client millions of dollars (serious, listen to the audio), if Miller didn’t do it and the scorned financial advisor didn’t do it, who would have done it? And how many enemies does Laremy Tunsil have?
The strangest story in recent NFL draft history isn’t clearing up anytime soon, apparently.
