A website called <a href="http://thewhitebronco.com/woman-sues-edwin-encarnacion-for-transmission-of-stds/">The White Bronco</a>, which states as its mission &#8220;breaking sports law,&#8221; has obtained the legal documents related to the Edwin Encarnacion case. Other outlets have also obtained the documents &#8212; the <a href="https://www.thestar.com/sports/bluejays/2016/08/23/blue-jays-edwin-encarnacion-sued-over-std-allegations.html">Toronto Star</a> has a piece up in which the plaintiff is named (and now also has the full document) &#8212; and apart from how shitty it is and how people are going to react to both it&#8217;s publication and the allegations herein, it&#8217;s out there, and it&#8217;s newsworthy. And so here is the full thing, and its many uncomfortable and detailed allegations. 
Regarding the shittiness of it and how to process all this stuff, I&#8217;ll simply point you to <a href="http://bluejaysnation.com/2016/8/22/tmz-report-edwin-encarnacion-being-sued-for-battery-std-allegations">what I wrote yesterday</a>, when the story first broke. Otherwise, here are some quick notes:
&#8211; Though the incidents are alleged to have occurred in the Dominican Republic, the lawsuit has been filed in the state of New York.
&#8211; The teammate who was seeing the woman prior to Encarnacion is not named in the suit.
&#8211; Weed, on the other hand, is mentioned a bunch. Big leaguers aren&#8217;t tested for it, and you definitely hear stories about it.
&#8211; Some background on how New York State law deals with knowing transmission of STDs can be found at <a href="http://www.criminaldefenselawyer.com/resources/transmitting-std-new-york.htm">Criminal Defense Lawyer</a>, though since the alleged incidents didn&#8217;t actually happen within the state, I&#8217;m not sure how much any of this is relevant.
