"You could argue that something might have happened in that period between 12:10 and 12:30. The defense would say, though, that because she's smiling in the photo taken at 12:31, it would be hard to believe that she had been brutally raped," he said.

The TV commentators will soon interview psychologists and womens' studies professors to opine on the "Pagliacci Syndrome."

The woman is smiling or laughing on the outside, they will say, only to mask her tears and pain resulting from having just been raped in a humiliating and brutal manner.

In some ways it is like the "Stockholm Syndrome," these psychologists will say, in that the woman's emotions are the opposite of what an uneducated person would expect to see in such a situation.

These folks will then send letters to the DA's office indicating they are available to work as expert witnesses and stating their hourly fees for such work.

I will believe the timestamps on the photos,when the camera is turned over. She was allegedly raped after returning for the shoe..which --the photo says 1230am...and the cabdriver is inconsistent with his times as well..one article says he picked up Ryan @ 12:19am and Paula Z. says 1am... One photo doesnt have a timestamp...hmmn
