She is not one to let a little rape get in the way of an otherwise enjoyable evening.

Come in from the rain; this was a bogus prosecution from the beginning and the DA is trying to make his bones on Kobe.

Would she have accused a man with "fewer financial resources" of rape?

I'm sure there is alot more to this case than we are hearing about. Too early to speculate how it will play out.

If she had consensual sex after crying rape, the speculation is over.

This little skank lied to the DA and to investigators. She could do jail time over this.

Here's the thing, women are capable of lying about this, they way they're known to have lied about molestation charges vs. their husbands when custody is at stake and acrimony is at an all time high.

And the idea that every rape charge should be handled with sacrosanct sensitivity to the person alleging it is hogwash. You level an accusation, you better be able to prove it, or as damn near close to proving it as you can.

Because it's women like her who do the most in devaluing, if that term can be used, the horror of rape when they appear to be exploiting consensual sex that just didn't turn out the way it should have.

If this girl were my daughter, there'd be hell to pay.

I've turned 180 on this thing. There's no way he doesn't walk, and deservedly so.

Women who are actually raped are usually emotionally effected by it. Sex a few hours later does not say "emotional trauma" to me.

I've gotta say, Kobe is innocent.

I don't know.

Most sports fans will understand, but as for the general public who would respond to his appeal in, say, a McDonalds ad...I don't know.


Ray Donovan's famous quote comes to mind.

If she had consensual sex AFTER the Kobe 'event' but before her rape kit exam, I'd say the prosecution is all washed up.

I would think that the prosectors would have checked this out long ago and not gone forward with the case if there was this doubt.

So you really think a prosecutor wouldn't prosecute an innocent man? How naive of you.

How, exactly does this disprove rape? It does cast the woman in a less than ideal light, but it doesn't prove anything that happened earlier. I have first hand knowledge of a woman who was raped coming on to someone who assisted her after the incident. (yes, hours after)

After, not before.

Does a woman who was raped have sex hours after being raped?
