I sincerely doubt the sexual history of either the victim or the defendant or witness for that matter will be allowed.

Then I assume you think the judge won't allow any evidence of sexual trauma to be introduced, either. Otherwise, she could have had sex with 6000 men in the previous 24 hours, and all the trauma evidence would have to be solely Kobe's fault.

You are correct. I think the judge will decide that this case of rape will be decided on the fact that Bryant raped her and is what caused trauma.

I can see where we want to depart from the "she was asking for it" days, but I don't see howher sexual activity a day prior to and one day after the alleged rape is not relevant. This is a rape trial. It's about sex.

It seems that would be comparable to accusing someone of beating your child, when you have a history of beating your child, and that evidence is not allowed. Who put the marks there?
