The case centered on a 2023 New York Times article that reported Spears, then an 18-year-old freshman basketball player at the University of Alabama, was present at the scene of a deadly shooting. Spears maintained he was not there. His father, then Marshall University athletic director Christian Spears, contacted Beckley attorney Stephen P.
