That wasn't a quote but an opinion ,the writer's description of what the DA put in the filing.I didn't see slam dunk in quotes and the language of the filing that is in quotes just doesn't sound like that.

That plus stitches there, that plus witnesses immediately that saw scratches and marks on the girl, plus Mo to Come my friend. They saying old Kobe got oral then forced anal. Sorry, but its rape of a disgusting nature, kobe will lose even if they pull all the race cards and nuts and sluts BS. Kobe ought to check on OJ and how he is doing Just Fine. What a joke. Kobe will be the BUTT of so many signs and placards he will never be the same, of course he was just a big liar and fraud anyway, only now everyone will know.

Okay, here's a run-down of key points from reports -- have I missed anything important?
Facts we know:
-Physical contact between Bryant and alleged victim. Bryant claims consensual adultery; accuser claims rape.
Likely true -- reported by multiple sources:
(Possibly prejudicial to accuser)
-Incident included some consensual sexual contact
-Accuser did not report story to police until next day
-Accuser attempted suicide twice in past several months
-Accuser auditioned for American Idol
(Possibly prejudicial to Bryant)
-Bryant stories to police about incident were inconsistent
-Accuser exhibited upset/stupor and disheveled appearance immediately afterward
-Accuser sustained some physical injuries
-Incident lasted only 20 minutes
-Two 911 calls were made from Bryant's house in past several months
Other reports
-Accuser attended party at which she discussed Bryant's manhood
-Other people in hotel heard commotion from Bryant's suite during incident

I have no idea who is telling the truth and don't lump me in with a "crowd" on this one. I'm only suggesting that such clucking is less than professional - by either attorney.
To: nyconse
Agreed,
I gather there was a lot of thought put into pressing charges.
As for the girl being emotionally unstable...
Geez louise,
She can be a paranoid schiz with a personality disorder and imaginary friends.
There is a very nasty message being sent out here...
you better not have ANY problems or ANY past or ANY of the quirks that are part of growing up.
Rape is rape....

You are completely sane. I have never really cared about this sort of case. I hate myself, but I watch the reports and read and post on many threads. This must be what heroin addicts experience......LOL

I would have enjoyed some other line like:
"We're going to grill Kobe" or, "Kobe's cooked"

Haha. Well done!

Dumb and dumber if you ask me the guy is obviously either a fruit cake, or the someone in media made this up.
first, no one in the media would ever make something up(right?). second, the media is still suffering from withdrawal because of lack of high profile racism cases recently.
plus those attorneys working on the scott peterson case are really pissed they're sharing spotlight.

The evidence was slam dunk in the OJ case--they just didn't realize they would have a jury that would ignore all of it.

Yes, they did say that in the OJ case. And they did have a slam-dunk case. However, that jury might not have convicted OJ even if he had committed the crime right in front of them.
Kobe's case might well be a slam-dunk as to proof of rape. However, convicting a rich celebrity, especially one who can throw a ball through a hoop, is another matter. Look what the judge did in the Iverson case. And DeShawn Stevenson got probabtion and community service, no matter that it involved a 13 or 14 year old and her mother had his confession on tape.

I never said I wasn't anti-Kobe. He is a lying, cheating scoundrel. That being said, I don't know if he is guilty of rape. You accept media reports favorable to your position (Kobe is innocent-no matter what!!!!). I accept no media reports as factual. I may comment on them and debate the what ifs of the situation, but I don't believe any media reports-including the Rita report. Only time will tell if any media reports are correct.
