PHOENIX—An Arizona woman who accused former Major League Baseball pitcher Trevor Bauer of sexual assault has been charged with defrauding the player.
An indictment unsealed Monday in Maricopa County Superior Court charges the woman with fraud and theft by extortion, both felonies, but doesn’t provide specific details about the alleged crimes. It says Bauer and one other person were defrauded in a scheme that potentially spanned several years.
