FJ, I am with you on this. The D.A. would never take on such a high-profile case if he did not think he could win. Hurlbert has repeatedly said that he has conclusive evidence. The girl sustained severe injuries; Bryant's DNA was all over her; her clothing was torn; and there was other evidence in the hotel room....I am assuming blood on the carpets or bed. Other hotel guests heard the altercation and called Security.
Things do not look good for Kobe if this goes to trial. He can only hope to get a change of venue or venire. Too bad Pam Mackey can't ask for a jury from L.A.
My prediction is that with such an overabundance of evidence, Bryant will cop a plea and get off with probation. Then the girl will bring a civil suit, which she will win.
See if it doesn't happen just this way. (He says as he looks into his crystal ball....)

I think he has no real choice. I believe they would be required to follow through even if she dismissed the claims.

Severe injuries.. which we have not the slightest inclining the extent of. DNA all over her? Good god... that must have been unpleasant sitting around 12 hours with Kobe.... uhh.. DNA... ALL over her before reporting these allegations..

You sure are! This is turning into the manson family massacre now.

Already dismissed in the press as untrue. There were no complaints nor security summoned to the room.
