Dallas Mavericks investigating sexual misconduct claims
Earl K. Sneed
The Sports Illustrated story also detailed the teamâs handling of the domestic assault case against  Earl K. Sneed   a writer on Mavs.com whose employment was terminated this week.  Sneed  was arrested in 2012 on suspicion of assaulting  his  then-girlfriend  who fractured her right wrist and suffered bruises to her arms and chest.
 Sneed  was arrested at the NBA team's facility two months after the incident and eventually pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault  according to Sports Illustrated. In the report   Sneed  then had another violent incident in 2014 with a fellow Mavericks employee  whose face was left swollen after the assault.
 The woman  reported the incident with  Sneed  to  her  immediate supervisor and Pittman. Pittman informed the woman of  Sneed 's prior arrest  according to Sports Illustrated.
âI was aware of it " Cuban told Sports Illustrated. "I also suggested that we put  him  through domestic violence training class and then create a zero tolerance policy that included a variety of things â¦ I donât want this to be incorrect. I donât want you to think I misled you. We took this very seriously.â
 Sneed  erased all  his  tweets and then deleted  his  account late Tuesday night.  His  Instagram account was still active.
Late Tuesday   Sneed  released a statement to The Dallas Morning News: "While both instances described in the report are damning and language used is not accurate  the two relationships described in the report are not something I am proud to have been a part of. I underwent much counseling after both situations  under the direction of [Mavs vice president of human resources] Buddy Pittman  and I feel like I grew from that counseling. I also signed a contract stating that I would not have one-on-one contact or fraternize with female employees after the inaccurately described incident with my female co-worker  who was a live-in girlfriend.
