Bombshell: Kobe Accuser Had Sex with Key Witness
The Globe ^ | 11/20/03 | Globe

Posted on 11/21/2003 11:44:43 AM PST by Smogger

A new bombshell revelation in the Kobe Bryant case threatens to destroy the credibility of the prosecution’s key witness - whose testimony could send the basketball superstar to jail for years. Sources told GLOBE that the 19-year-old woman who has accused Bryant of rape told them she had sex with the prosecution’s star witness Bobby Pietrack - a week before she met Bryant.

Pietrack, a 23-year-old bellhop at the resort where the alleged rape took place, is the first person Katelyn Faber told about her encounter with Bryant. He can testify about her emotional state and physical appearance at the time.

But legal experts tell us that if there was a sexual encounter between Katelyn and the bellhop, it could wreck his credibility and sink the case of the Eagle County, Colo., prosecutor.

For all the details of this blockbuster story, pick up the new issue of GLOBE.

I am absolutely correct in my representation, and after reviewing what I had previously read, I see that the transcripts support me.

Just where did the earlier reports that she was sodomized come from? Who,what, or whom cleared up the facts and determined that was a lie?

Who is the aleged witness and why is this witness not being held on charges of being an accesory before, during and after the fact?

Exactly. Impossible to leave-difficult to protest.

Assuming you have read the entire transcript.

Every word. I even provided a handy link later in this thread, and Howlin supplies one, too.

Looks my memory and comprehension skills are still in tip-top shape.

Kobe Bryant denied that he had sex with her for a week.

At first he denied having sex with her until the evidence came out....then he changed it to consentual....yea right...then came wifey's ring, cars and gifts...nice guy.

Since Kobey has already admitted to sexual intercourse w/the accuser (no semen, however),

The vaginal swabs have not been tested, and even though he did not ejaculate, it is still possible it is his. I agree, if it's not I don't see how the threshold of "beyond a reasonable doubt" could be met.

With the other evidence in her panties and the microscopic amount of blood on his shirt

The blood streaks on his shirt were not microscopic. Transcript links are available on the thread.

Who,what, or whom cleared up the facts and determined that was a lie?

Sodomy was a rumor, perpetuated by Geraldo Rivera on air, no less. It was stated flatly at the prelim that vaginal penetration was the only allegation in that area, though the position was from behind.

The bellman know's [sic] whether or not she is easy or not if he had sex with her. He's not gonna by [sic] that crap.

For the sake of your prejudiced argument, let's say she's as easy as you are aching to believe she is. Are you telling me the bellman didn't know that? If she is that easy, are you telling me she would give a rat's what the bellman thought of the possibility of her getting funky with Kobe?

Well, we all know that Geraldo misses the target from time to time. Isn't it a possiblity that Kobe in his enthuistic thrusts from behind, could have missed his primary target too?

The vagina tears could only be seen under the microscope after being stained. How much blood could come from this kind of tear?

That isn't the testimony, either--that they were only visible with dye via microscope. There were two photos introduced, one with dye and one without. The dye and magification were to enhance the ability to see, but they were not invisible.

I am guessing the prosecution will try to show that the two 1 centimeter (not tiny, imo) and "too many to count" 1 mm tears were the source.

That has not been the specific testimony, and I'm not arguing it definitely was. Just perceiving that's where they're headed.

The detective said the nurses and doctor found no trauma to that area. Further, there is no accusation of such. It was elicited very plainly.

1mm should read 1-2mm tears

An absolute falsehood.

You are right, it is an absolute falsehood that he never has sex with her. But that was the story for a week. Just like Clinton put out stories on Lewinsky about how she made up the whole thing.

So you think that if a married person has sex with someone besides their spouse it is the thir parties fault, but not the married persons? Wow, that is Clintonian.

What's she gonna say to the bellboy after she emerges from Kobe's room?

1. We were just playing chess.
2. I was showing him how the hot tub worked.
3. He made me!

If you chose answer 3 your on the right track.

Nice witch hunt you've got going.

Hey, if she's intimate with the bell hop, everyone gets a poke, right?

You wish.

Yes Mr. Bryant was guilty of Adultery. Last time I checked that was not a crime in Colorado.

Yes, but last time I checked a 19 year old girl having sex with several men is not a crime either, so what is your point? If her having sex with other men is relevant, than so is the fact that Bryant violated his marriage vows. Neither is illegal, but you want to disregard one. The fact is, that Braynt took an oath to his wife. This victim, may not be an admirable person for her promiscuity, but she never took a commitment not to have sex with other people. Unless you are a member of the Massachusetts Supreme Court you should acknowledge that.

Well, there wasn't anything left of the 9/11 terrorists

You better contact the federal government, because they are prosecuting people for having involvement.
