Well....I'd say it's obvious from the replies who actually knows a victim of sexual assault or has themselves been a victim of sexual assault. And people wonder why this sort of crime is so rarely reported. I guess it's because of the callousness of the majority of the general public. :disgust:
I get so tired of hearing this mumbo jumbo. We are all adults who have had sex in many ways. This story is so whack it doesn't even add up. When they said she had marks I was thinking she had all these marks showing he smacked her or something. Now the cop seen no brusies but the nurse did? Ok so who's lying or blind. This is clearly he said she said fiasco. And if all they are going to bring to the table is this weak stuff Kobe will walk unless he gets convicted for other reasons.
You have to figure that the state of dress could have been different when she was in front of the cop compared to when she was in front of the nurse. Not to mention if her hair was up or down. A cop might not know where to look and a nurse might. Also, time frame from the point of injury to the showing of bruising varies. It has to do with timeline. Someone can look relatively unhurt and develop bruises at a later time.
Most rape cases are he said/she said. Yes, they definitely need better evidence. I totally agree with you on that, but that's not what you were originally saying. You simply said, as you did yet again, 'This story is so whack it doesn't even add up.' So where's the he said/ she said? There's no objectivity there. You seem intent on saying that she's wrong just because there's no strong physical evidence. Couldn't it have happened the way she said and yet still be lacking in the evidence area? Anything is possible and sadly the only people that know what really happened are her and Kobe. Regardless of the decisions in the legal system we really will never know.
They have more evidence than most rape cases.
Her blood on his clothes, multiple bruses on her face, neck and arms, as well as vaginal trauma. And thats just whats came out so far, next Weds the hearing resumes.
Winters seemed sure of himself when questioned by prosecutors, but wasn't so sharp when Mackey had her shot. At one point she asked Winters whether he had seen a bruise on the woman's neck allegedly caused by Bryant when he interviewed her the day after the incident.
``She talks on how Mr. Kobe Bryant grabbed her neck and choked her,'' Mackey told Winters. ``You looked at her neck to see?''
Winters said he had, then Mackey asked him if he saw any injuries on her neck.
``Not from the front, no,'' he said.
``Not a red mark?'' she asked.
``That's correct,'' he said.
``Not a scratch?''
``That's correct.''
