Controversy

According to police reports, Kane was taken into custody at 5:00 am after he and his cousin assaulted a taxi driver. The taxi ride was $ 14.80, the Kanes gave the taxi driver $ 15. However, since the taxi driver was short of 20 cents, they took the money back and beat the driver, who had broken glasses and lacerations on his face. In court, Kane pleaded "not guilty". After the violent crime charge was dropped, the charges of minor bodily harm, theft and harassment remained. During the August trial, Kane and his cousin finally pleaded guilty to the molestation and received a one-year suspended sentence .

In August 2015, the US regional newspaper The Buffalo News reported that Kane is a suspect in a rape case in the investigation by the Hamburg (New York) police . On the night of August 1st to 2nd, he allegedly raped a woman after going to a nightclub in his local estate. In immediate response to the allegations being made public, Kane was removed from the cover of the NHL 16 video game and all associated marketing campaigns from EA Sports . After a forensic examination could not find any traces of Kane's DNA in the genital area of ​​the alleged victim and the victim's statements contradicted the results of the DNA smear, prosecutors announced that they would not conduct any further investigations against Kane. The alleged victim then signed an affidavit that she would not take any further legal action against Kane.
