DENVER (Reuters) - Crime laboratory evidence shows the 19-year-old woman who has accused Kobe Bryant of rape had consensual sex with another man hours after she said the basketball star raped her, MSNBC reported on Wednesday.

The DNA evidence from the prosecution's own laboratory could be introduced in court as early as Thursday when the Los Angeles Laker will be back in an Eagle, Colorado, courtroom for a pre-trial hearing, the cable TV report said.

Bryant's lawyer, Pamela Mackey, laid a bombshell in a prior pre-trial hearing when she suggested the woman had sex within 15 hours after she said she was raped.

Through her attorney, the young woman denied having sex so soon after she said she was raped on June 30 at a Colorado resort where she worked and Bryant was staying for out-patient surgery on his knee.

According to the MSNBC report, fresh sperm and semen samples were found inside the woman's body from samples given during a rape examination and that such evidence would prove she had sex within hours after the incident with Bryant.

As I understand it, this proves that she lied to the police.
It doesn't prove he didn't rape her, but it makes the case impossible to prosecute.

Wasn't there a law firm by the name of Travesty, Mockery, and Sham?

The judge should do the world a favor and toss this case. Any money spent on the prosectution from this day forward is a waste of taxpayer dollars, as there is no way in hell that he's going to be found guilty.

In fact, the longer this case goes on, the better will be Kobe's chances of filing a lawsuit of his own.

This was known long ago and did not stop the Judge's decision to proceed. This is probably a defense move to cloud the water.

It was not introduced into evidence long ago. It was asserted by the defense.

Cloud the water is an understatement. She had sex after she was allegedly raped? How can anyone determine the source of her "injuries?" Then she lied about it to police. There goes her credebility. Her lawyer was repeating the lie just a mere month ago. Not to mention she is covered with jiz from a key prosecution witness.

Who cares? If he wasn't doing something really bad to start with, he wouldn't be in this mess. I have no sympathy for Kolbe Bryant. Too many other really important problems in this world to worry about.

Well geee don't read this thread. It's important that people are falsely prosecuted for crimes they didn't commit. At least I think it is. Maybe our standards are slipping some.

Quick turn on FOX news. The judge is reaming the prosecution right now.

This does not prove that he was falsly accused. It will never be proven beyond a shadow of a doubt. His word against hers. Some people cause their own problems

I think the Prosecutor is the one "clouding the water".

From the article:

Prosecutors have said that DNA from someone other than Bryant was found on the underwear the woman wore when she went to the hospital and was the result of mistakenly putting on soiled underwear that had DNA from an earlier sexual episode.

However, the DNA sample taken from her body could refute that line of thinking.

End article.

This girl has probably got some guys DNA on every piece of clothing she owns.
