Tyreek Hill's estranged wife testifies about alleged abuse in Connecticut hotel
The alleged 2024 assault took place a day before Hill hosted a youth football camp at Maloney High School in Meriden.
Former NFL player Tyreek Hill's estranged wife, Lakeeta Vaccaro, testified in a Miami civil trial that Hill allegedly abused her during an argument in a Connecticut hotel room in July 2024. Vaccaro wept while recounting the alleged abuse, describing incidents where Hill punched her pregnant belly, pulled out her hair, destroyed her belongings, and threatened to harm her.
However, Hill admitted to telling Vaccaro that he could "get people to hurt her," but denied the other allegations. The couple had traveled to Connecticut for an event at ESPN's Bristol headquarters, and the alleged abuse occurred in a Bristol hotel room a day before Hill hosted a youth football camp. Vaccaro claimed she initially declined to appear on TV with Hill but eventually agreed, and he became angry when she didn't comply with his wishes.
She testified that the alleged abuse lasted about 30 minutes and was "probably the worst" of the times Hill physically abused her.
