This "poor, poor Kobe, having his life ruined by some vicious slut" was not forced to whip it out and use it on her, in violation of his vows. And if the girl's sexual history is fair game, shouldn't his apparent willingness to lie to his wife, to God, and to anyone at his wedding be taken into consideration too? It might be good to remember that as this thread continues.

Your scary attitude is exactly what I was describing in my earlier post. Too many of you think it is fine to hang Kobe for adultery if you cant get him on rape. This is why people are afraid of people like Judge Moore, though I supported him. People realize that there are some like you who think in this nation you can just prosecute someone for breaking Gods laws, if man's laws dont do the job for you.

If you want to petition the courts to charge Bryant with adultery, be my guest, but dont call him 'guilty' in the context of this court case, because he sinned. In cases of sin, courts are not the judge and if I may say so, neither are you.

I would defy you to find where I stated I wanted him charged with adultery. It isn't illegal, but rather just wrong. I have no desire to "go after" Kobe for anything. My statement is that his actions are just as applicable to this case as our his alleged victim's. To deny that is to engage in a form of hero worship that blinds completely.

To repeat, I in no way stated that I would prosecute Kobe for adultery. I stated that I find it extremely distasteful and punishable by castration, yes. But not in court. It isn't illegal. Now put down the straw man and slowly step away... :-)

Looks like Kobe is going to walk on this one, especially with a high powered defense team. Most of the big profile legal whores (Geragos, for instance) could get him cut with even less to work with than in this case.

I'm the last person to cite religion as a reason to condemn him, but he has been exposed as not being the boy scout that he tried to pass off as his image. I'm glad to see him suffering for being a hypocrite, and he deserves the loss of endorsement contracts, no way should he be held up as an example of someone to follow.

I just fear that an acquittal will tell him and others like him that its OK to fool around with all the women who throw themselves at sports figures.
