Good grief!
« on: October 23, 2003, 12:43:50 AM »
I don't know much about the Kobe Bryant case -- pretty much ignored it.   However, I saw the most incredible article at

http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/sports/7032771.htm

Among other things, it says:

"While the accuser's interview with Winters is fair game, analysts were split  whether defense lawyers will be able to tell jurors that the panties the accuser wore on the day of the alleged attack contained semen and pubic hair from a man other than Bryant."

I understand defense attorneys can (and will if permitted) crucify sexually promiscous women who were in fact raped.  However, this appears to be stretching "protecting the victim" idea to me.

Hey she"s a bimbo therefore she deserved to get raped.
Thats typical of defence lawyers.

You know I have really have no idea if Kobe Is guilty or not.
Don't really have an opinion.
But one thing he is guilty of and thats cheating on the beautiful
wife he has.
The man is a fool and so is she for staying with him.

I don't agree with this line of thinking at all.

Ok so she had sex with someone else, heck she could even be a groupie.
She could have been doing the whole TEAM! Thats not the point. Her reputation is not on trial here.

Point was he went to far, she said no, he didn't listen.

We ALL know when going out with someone new you can get away with whatever you can get away with. But when she says NO you STOP!

For me the telling evidence was the strangle marks on her neck & the bruising in the groin area.

Seems obvious to me he was going someplace she couldn't handle & pulled the whistle.

I can bet you anything there would be no case if Kobe weren't as famous as he was. We don't know if the strangle marks and bruises were from Kobe, we don't know if the blood and semen and pubes were Kobe's, we don't know if she said "No!" or not.

The only thing we know is what the plaintiff is saying, and to me she's out for money. I can bet you all the money in my bank account that had she not had sex with Kobe, she would not have gone to court.

I don't think the defense would want to paint her as a potato just to defame her Charactor as much as they would want to use this to create an alternate explaination for her injuries in an attempt to create reasonable doubt.

"Perhaps she was raped, but hey, it was someone else who raped her" would be the thinking I suppose.

Did I miss the part where the accusor's life has been in any way enriched, monetarily or otherwise, by this whole experience?

What was this young girl thinking when she...
1. Gave Bryant a private tour
2. Went up to his hotel room after she got off work
3. Consented to kissing him - She has admited to this

What was she thinking when she kissed this married man who she only knew for a few hours ....

What was she thinking... she was already having sex with other guys...

This could be rape... if she said no, and he didnt' stop - it's rape.

Why didn't she scream
Why didn't she fight back
Why didn't she scratch him
Did the other hotel guests hear any comotion?
Did he threaten her life?
Did he beat her?
Did he tear her clothing off?

Why doesn't she change her underware?

Yea, this is going to be an interesting trial

It seems the victim is on trial, her life, her history, etc etc...

I've been reading how Kobe apologized for committing adultery and worded it ever so carefully...

My question is...how many other women has he tagged, etc etc...we're digging dirt on the accuser, but what about Kobe?

Its too soon to say...
