Reminds me of the Kobe Bryant scandal.
No, actually it is the exact opposite of the Kobe Bryant scandal. In that case the girl was actually raped, but the legal system and the media immediately put up the "nuts and sluts" defense e.g. "why was she even in his room",etc. Eventually, the accuser gave up and took a settlement. In this case, the accuser is a hooker with a criminal record and the system/media immediately took her side even though we all know that a rape did not occur. It is, quite simply, a racial issue. Kobe got a bye and the Duke lacrosse team did not. Do you think the coach will be reinstated? I think not. Do you think the season will be reinstated? I think not. Did Kobe miss a game? I think not.
More like the Tywanna Brawley scandal. It had more "plantation appeal" among the useful idiots.
