Kobe Bryant statement
(CNN) -- This is the text of a statement released on behalf of Kobe Bryant through his attorneys, Harold Haddon and Pamela Robillard Mackey, and his agent Rob Pelinka: "I am innocent of the charges filed today. I did not assault the woman who is accusing me. "I made the mistake of adultery. I have to answer to my wife and my God for my actions that night and I pray that both will forgive me. "Nothing that happened June 30th was against the will of the woman who now falsely accuses me. "These false allegations have hurt my family. I will fight against these allegations with all my strength. My wife is the strongest person I know. She is willing to stand by me despite my mistake. That means everything to me. "I have so much to live for. And by that I do not mean the contracts, or the money, or the fame. I mean my family. I will fight for them. "I appreciate all those who have supported me. Thank you for believing in me. My family and I are going to need your support and prayers now more than ever."
