Meanwhile, Harding's bodyguard, Shawn Eckardt, implicated her in the attack in an affidavit released by police and in an interview on ABC's PrimeTime Live.

Allen leads the team in scoring (at 16.6 points per game) and nearly engineered an upset of Massachusetts in the first round of the NCAA tournament in 1993. He also shoots a deadly 89 percent...
