There is another witness reportedly. I have heard there are two-maybe three witnesses that saw her after the incident.

Here is some independent reporting from ESPN that rolling stone posted at #62 (rs, I'm reposting for those that didn't catch it earlier).

They don't mention "torn" clothes, either--but "disheviled". Also don't mention a ride home, but they DO say she told the bellman immediately and, well, here's the article. If there are pictures they most certainly will be entered into evidence:

Co-worker reportedly was disheveled and had marks

EAGLE, Colo. -- Bobby Pietrack, a bellman at the Lodge & Spa at Cordillera, told police that he saw his 19-year-old co-worker shortly after she left Kobe Bryant's room on the night of the alleged sexual assualt, ESPN's Shelley Smith reported Monday.

Pietrack reportedly told police that the woman was visibly upset, disheveled and had red marks on her neck and face, according to Smith.

Sources close to the investigation say Pietrack is considered the first link in the chain of what is called "immediate outcry," meaning he is the first person the alleged victim cried out to immediately following the alleged incident.

The alleged victim went to police the following day, approximately 13 hours after the alleged assault. Sources also said that photos taken of her at that point show the marks. Those photos are considered part of the prosecution's evidence.

Pietrack has not spoken to reporters and has declined repeated requests by ESPN.
