Four years to life if a prison term or twenty years to life of probation.

In a related story, prison officials have stated that if convicted, he will be kept under a 24 hour basketball jones watch.

Either that or they are playing his bluff hoping he will come forward and plea bargain with them so they don't lose face. DA's do that stupid stuff all the time.

And finding that took 18 days? I could be wrong, but I would think one could find it in a matter of hours.

Johnnie is too busy debating whether Pete Rose should be in the Hall of Fame.

I know nothing about this law except that this does not seem like rape to me. What was it? Oral sex? Grabbing her? One of his buddies did something?

Who cares. Just another millionaire thug beating up on a woman...sounds like the NFL.

Right. Guilty until proven innocent. We don't even need a trial. Just let the prosocutor decide whether or not someone is guilty or not.

Yes, if he does get jail time, he will be easy to find.

Well, it takes time to test DNA, longer if done with ironclad precision. If you charge him right away, Cochran will just come in and say "rush to judgment." I'm glad they took their time, thought through the case, made their decision, and went with it.

Celebrities never do jail time, so don't get all worried about it.

True....wonder how his marriage and endorsements will fare?...

He can always pursue a second career in rap music.

You know, I actually don't have any idea what this case is about and I'm going to keep it that way.

Have they revealed that Kobe already had told the police that he had sex with the woman?

So a if your charged with a crime your automatically guilty. Typical FReeper Law and Order Type horseshit.

Patrick Roy was busted for domestic violence a few years ago, he ended up shoving it down the DA's throat to the point the DA is gone. Over zealous law enforcement might be the problem here also.
