Sypher Wanted to "take down" Pitino
Day six of the trial came with some shocking news. Two witnesses testified that Karen Sypher admitted to "doing something stupid" and wanted to "take down" the University of Louisville coach Rick Pitino.
The surprising testimony came from a former lover on Monday, who said that Sypher admitted to trying to extort Rick Pitino. Sypher's ex-husband also testified she turned down a plea deal from prosecutors because she wanted to gain revenge against the UofL coach. \
Karen Sypher left the U.S. District Court after two witnesses testified that she acknowledged her crimes and her intent to get revenge against coach Pitino. Sypher spent the last hours of Monday's proceedings with her head hung low as the jurors were shown a video recording her interview with Metro Police.
Three witnesses have now testified the knowledge Sypher had about her actions.
