The newspaper reported that, according to the lawsuit, Trimble, who’s a sergeant in the U.S. Army, went to Minnesota to break up with the Vikings running back and get her belongings from his home, but things allegedly turned violent at Cook’s Inver Grove Heights home.
The Star Tribune reported that the lawsuit was sent to Cook late Tuesday. Before it was filed, Trimble and her lawyer, Daniel Cragg, held settlement discussions with Cook and his attorney, David Valentini, but no agreement was reached.
The lawsuit says that Trimble and Cook met on a Florida beach in 2018 and began their relationship. In the lawsuit, Trimble claims that Cook got angry when she asked for his help in gathering her things. Cook allegedly “grabbed her arm, and slung her whole body over the couch, slamming her face into the coffee table and causing her lower forehead and the bridge of her nose to bust open”.
Per Cook’s lawyer, David Valentini, the story is different:
Valentini also said that Trimble broke into Cook’s house, assaulted him and two houseguests and is now trying to “extort him for millions of dollars,” as per the Star Tribune.
