I understand, these guys are never told NO for most of there adult life they think they can do anything.

If the DA is pressing charges there must be some good Evidence.


Who ever thought OJ whould have cut his better halfs head off??


What are you talking about, don't you know OJ was setup by the police. Its everybody trying to attack black people, just ask Darkstar757. Everybody is a rasict, never has a black person broke the law, don't you know only white people do that stuff , again see Darkstar757

Dude you are so lame. I not saying black people dont commit crimes. I just saying look at how many sports start that are black are getting hit with these charges. I know that its hard for you to read and comprehend but all im saying is lots of black stars are commiting these types of crimes or being accused of these crimes. All im saying is what is the cause.

Remember Nick Anderson? Amd the girls friend got scared and said the girl made the whole thing up. She probably started with lets see each other and the side and Kobe shot her down then things got out of hand like I'll tell your wife and nonsense like that. There is no way this guy just became a rapist. Anyone like that has some inklings at some point and time. I feel for the guy, but I completely beleive he didn't rape this girl. He's guilty of being a cheating dummy.

This thread is fvcking creepy. I agreed with Dezign and now I am agreeing with Classy? WTF! :beer:

It isn't always about only money... don't forget fame.

how will they prove he assaulted her? was he too rough with her in bed? if she sustained injuries, how will she prove that it was from the sex and not something else.

sexual assault charges seem so hard to prove. you gotta think that this particular municipality has a vested interest in charging Kobe meaning that in my opinion their motives are suspect.

i very seriously doubt that he will lose this case. if he does win, i hope he sues the sh!t out of this town.

A class 3 felony sexual assault could be rape(4 years to life). Rape is sexual assualt, most states dont charge you with rape. Most states charge rape as form of sexual assualt.

ahh, i c.

makes for an interesting case then.

i still don't see how they are going to prove intent.

besides, motive is at question here to. as has been said and will be said again, she has a lot to gain.

If the hospital found signs of vaginal trauma, he will be convicted. As to my knowledge she has in no way tried to profit off this. Since the case is under seal we have to wait and see what happens.

Yeah we all know vaginal trauma can't occur from consensual sex.

If I understand the charges, he's being charged with sexual assault because he forced her to have sex through physical abuse.

Frankly I think he didn't do it for a number of reasons that have already been stated here. Honestly, I think you can pin this charge on the DA's office. They really seem to be loving their 15 minutes if you ask me. Look at when the scheduled the press conference to announce this. Funny how they just made it right in time to catch all the evening news broadcasts. For the east coast anyway.

Plus, how truly stupid would they look if they let this drag on for weeks and didn't charge him with anything? I doubt they have any real evidence to speak of and this will all go away quickly.

Btw, not a lakers fan but I've always respected Kobe because he seems to go about his buisness the right way.

what makes him different? uh the fact that he is a celebrity and a multimillionaire. there arent exactly financial benefits to falsely accuse Joe Blow

Like I said false accusers dont typically go to the hospital. Its not like she spent the night with him. She worked at the resort he was staying at, after whatever happened occured he went to the hospital for his knee(what he was in vail for) and she went to another hospital.

Its pretty sad people takes sides knowing none of the evidence. Im not saying he did do it, but by the DAs actions, it does appear they have pretty strong evidence.


She went to the hospital after going to the cops at noon the next day. If she went from the hotel straight to the hospital, I could understand the charges, but I still think she just feels bad about committing adultery and cheating on her bf.

That tells me she is just another skank looking to get a hook up with a jock.

exactly, and Stark's account of the situation is probably true. parents question her why she is late getting home and next thing you know, WHAM "my daughter was raped!"

Leave her out of this.

Viper GTS

Why? I am sure she knew the truth before almost anyone else did. She has kept that bottled up. What about if the victim is right? What if he did assault her? Is everyone going to rescind their comments they made about her? I doubt it.

Uh yeah there can be some minor vaginal trauma with consensual sex if its rough. However forced intercourse leaves severe vaginal trauma, that is far more damage than rough consensual sex.

He's 6'9" (and you know what they say about black guys). She's a 19-year old "good girl." She must have got a lot more than she bargained for. Maybe that's why her bf broke up with her **allegedly**. Kobe envy.

I'm sure that Kobe's "size" could be a factor if they found some vaginal trauma but not a lot. I'm sure her sexual history will come into play. It will all come out. It's going to be a good soap opera for the press, maybe even the trial on TV like OJ?>

Not since his highschool. Her highschool. He married her when she was an 18 year old high school senior.

See Stark's post and also see the fact that we DON'T KNOW WHAT THE HOSPITAL FOUND. The DA is NOT WILLING to release any info like that. Maybe it will be leaked, but who knows. Maybe the girl was a virgin? Maybe she had only had sex a few times with a guy that wasn't well endowed. Maybe Kobe is well endowed. Maybe not. Maybe he raped her? We DON'T know, but we can't SAY someone did something until they have their trial.

My gut says he didn't do it, and I don't think Iron Mike raped that women in Indiana either. You don't just go into a hotel room by yourself at 3AM with Mike Tyson for cookies and fvcking milk. If you do you are a moron, but I think most people know what someone wants.

no one ever said she was totally stupid.

what you think she would have been stupid enough to try and benefit financially from this BEFORE the trial??

do you honestly believe the fact that she HASN'T tried to benefit from this yet has ANY bearing on her real motivations??

2) When you hear such accusations made against athletes, what is your first impulse?

52.0% To believe the athlete is innocent

48.0% To believe the accusations are true

shocked 48% of people believe the accusations.

and there is the crux of it. the reason tyson was convicted and that kobe will NOT be convicted is that people want/wanted to believe that tyson was/is a rapist. same is not true of kobe.
