A new bombshell revelation in the Kobe Bryant case threatens to destroy the credibility of the prosecutions 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 prosecutions 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.

Note to Admin Moderator: J.Rob pulled the thread that said not to post pictures and info about the accuser.
Alright here we go again. I removed the link to the the Globe websitea as it contains the Globe cover, which, in case you can't make it to a grocery store or 7-11 contains a picture of the accuser. You can find their website pretty easy though.

What do you think Kobe is going to re-name that town after he ends up owning it?

having sex voluntarily is not a crime. If she did, so what? More character assassination.
More of that nuts and sluts defense.

Oh duh. She had sex with this guy, then after possibly being raped, she cried on his shoulder. Kobe is definitely not guilty. Even hookers have a right to say no.

If she did, so what? You honestly don't see why having sex with your star witness might affect the testimony of said witness?
To: swarthyguy
More of that nuts and sluts defense.
It is a reprehensible strategy, unless a nutty slut accuses you of a crime you didnt commit.
I dont know that that is the case here, but I dont know that it's not either.

having sex voluntarily is not a crime If your having a romantic relationship with someone, I don't see how they can be the star witness when you accuse another of rape.

Would someone in the state of Colorado who DIDNT have sex with Kobe, please report to the prosecutor's office?

It means that she and the bellhop could be in cahoots to get Bryant convicted so the "victim" gets a larger civil settlement.
If the prosecutors don't drop the charges against him after this they're complete idiots.
To: Smogger
Sheesh. Jim pulled the previous thread, not just because it linked to a picture, but because it's a bogus thread. I hope he pulls this one, too.

having sex voluntarily is not a crime.Exactly! And that is what Kobe is trying to prove. Believe it or not if a girl is willing to sleep with every Tom Dick and Harry, there's a good chance that she'd be more than willing to sleep with every Kobe too.
Don't you think that's relevant?
To: gubamyster
I would only be surprised if it was reported that she had sex w/ Michael JacksonThat would be a major surprise indeed, she's not a little boy.

I hope this never goes to trial. This girl is a slut and she slutted around with everyone. She has ZERO credibility in my opinion.
