Auston Matthews faced a criminal investigation after a woman filed a charge against him that almost ruined his career

Auston Matthews, Toronto Maple Leafs’ star player, faced a controversy in 2019 when he was charged with disorderly conduct. A security guard, Fayola Dozithee, reported that Matthews and a group tried to open her car. Though the charges were later dropped, the incident delayed him becoming captain until 2024.
