This information immediately shocked social media, divided fans and sparked a wave of fierce criticism aimed at the Rivera family. No longer a mere sports story, the incident quickly turned into the center of the latest scandal covering the MLB world.
In a short statement, the Riveras completely denied the allegations, affirming that they will cooperate with all relevant parties to clarify the truth. However, that has not yet calmed the wave of skepticism that is spreading.
At present, there is no official conclusion from the authorities, but public opinion continues to ask:
What really happened behind the doors of the Yankees legend’s home and church? Will Rivera’s long-standing clean image stand up to this storm?
