Deadspin claims the teen allegedly contacted them with a story about how she met and hooked up with Mark (more details HERE). Eliza and Mark were or are currently still dating, so she tried to prevent the story from coming out and hired a lawyer, Richard Kendall, who threatened to sue if they published the dirty details and pictures of the QB’s bedroom she initially offered them (pictures below).

The legal age of sexual consent is 16 in New York. Mark was not breaking any laws when he flirted and went out with this girl. Eliza probably just wanted some attention, but got scared when she realized the media madness she created.
