Javier Loya, a minority owner of the Texans, was charged with sexual assault case in August last year. The case, however, has now been settled. Andrew J. Sarne also shared in a statement that was given to the Pro Football Talk by Leonardo Basterra of The Voice Society, a P.R. firm.
The statement mentioned, “In May of 2023, charges against Javier Loya were brought by the Commonwealth of Kentucky, which Mr. Loya immediately and vigorously denied. After a thorough examination of evidence over the last year, the prosecution has dismissed all seven counts. Mr. Loya has agreed to accept a charge of ‘harassment with intent to annoy’, a class B misdemeanor. A $100.00 fine was paid by Mr. Loya.”

“While still expressing his innocence, this process has been very difficult for him and his family. Throughout this ordeal, Mr. Loya had unwavering faith in the legal system despite enduring intense public scrutiny and prejudgment before due process was completely afforded to him. With this resolution, Mr. Loya will focus on family and a return to normality.”
The major accusations were dropped and Loya still pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor. However, with time, it will be known if Loya will face disciplinary action from the NFL in accordance with the Personal Conduct Policy.
