Cowboys owner Jerry Jones target of lawsuit over alleged secret daughter

• Alexandra Davis says her mother was paid to keep quiet
• Jones allegedly set up trust funds for Davis

A 25-year-old Washington DC woman has filed suit against Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, alleging that he is her father, the Dallas Morning News and ESPN reported on Wednesday.

Alexandra Davis, an aide for US congressman Ronny Jackson, alleges that Jones paid her mother $375,000 in 1996 to keep silent about the child's paternity, though Jones did not admit to being the father. Jones also allegedly set up two trust funds for Alexandra Davis through an attorney in Arkansas, where Cynthia Davis, her mother, lived.
