Former NFL linebacker Darron Lee, who played for the Jets, Chiefs, and Bills, is set to face trial for the first-degree murder of his girlfriend Gabriella Perpetuo. The trial, which has been scheduled for September 20, 2027, follows Lee's decision to enter a not-guilty plea to the charges. The victim's family has also filed a separate civil lawsuit, alleging that Lee may have been influenced by ChatGPT in how to handle an unresponsive person.
Lee, a first-round pick by the Jets in 2016, played a total of 58 regular-season games and started 38 of them before his career was cut short due to the allegations.
