The batty British blonde accused of shaking down Brian Cashman says the Yankees GM scored her a fake id so she could get an abortion.
In papers filed in Manhattan Supreme Court, Louise Meanwell says Cashman knocked her up in June of last year, and was "unnerved" when she told him she was pregnant.
He "informed me that if I was to continue the pregnancy he would want nothing to do with me or the child," Meanwell wrote in an affidavit.
"When I informed Mr. Cashman that I decided to terminate the pregnancy he demanded that I provide him with two passport size photographs so he could obtain a fake ID," the filing says.

"Not only did Mr. Cashman obtain a fake ID for me in the name of Rosalita Gonzalez, he also took in finding a cloinic to provide the abortion service and car service for me on the day of the procedure."
"Rosalita" said he "provided emotional support and was quite decent to me in the days after the procedure," but "seemed to struggle with his religious convictions in opposing abortion yet being party to a pregnancy that was terminated."
Cashman's spokesman, Chris Giglio, called the claims "more falsehoods from an individual that has been charged by a grand jury for lying."
Prosecutors have said in court that Meanwell - who also goes by the name Louise Neathway - made the pregnancy claim up. She's charged with extorting $6000 from Cashman and trying to shake him down for thousands more she claimed she needed for a procedure to "freeze her eggs" because of damage done to her ovaries during the alleged abortion.
If the claim is phony, she might find herself in more trouble with the law. She made the allegation in a sworn affidavit, meaning prosecutors could go after her for perjury.
Meanwell made the claims in a court filing seeking 911 tapes for a planned "personal injury" civil suit, saying she needs the tapes "to identify the proper defendant(s)" for her complaint.
Her affidavit makes it clear one of those defendants will be Cashman. The filing lays out her alleged relationship with the then-married Cashman in sometimes gruesome detail. She says they'd been friends since 2006, but had suspected he "was interested in more than a platonic relationship."
She found out that was indeed the case says on April 7 of last year, when "Mr. Cashman met me and one of my friends in Lower Manhattan for drinks."
"During the course of the evening, Mr. Cashman claimed to be separated from his wife and living apart from her. At one point, Mr. Cashman leaned towards me and proceeded to kiss me on the lips and then inserted his tongue into my mouth," she said, adding that he walked her home and they engaged "in consensual intercourse."
Meanwell said her relationship with Cashman "had ups and downs," and by the end of 2011, "it became apparent this relationship had no future." She said there were times she stopped taking Cashman's calls, and that her phone logs show "101 missed calls from numbers associated with Mr. Cashman" between Dec. 14, 2011 and Jan. 28, 2012.
Prosecutors have said she called Cashman over 300 times in a four day span beginning in late January.
On January 27th, she said Cashman made "false and libelous statements" to Meanwell's mom in order to get her to call 911 on her daughter, including telling her "I was suicidal and of unchaste character." "In sum and substance, Mr. Cashman informed my mother that I was nothing more than a one night stand," Meanwell wrote.
She contends there were "several false 911 calls" made to get "emergency personnel" to go to her to apartment, and she wants a court order to help her determine who made those calls. Records show that EMS went to her apartment that day and left without taking any action. Police arrested her on the extortion charges soon after.
A hearing has been scheduled on her records request for July 18.
Her criminal trial is also pending. Meanwell, who's being held on $300,000 bail, has a record of stalking and harassment and has been ordered to stay away from Cashman and his family. Additional reporting by Jeane MacIntosh
