Just allowing her into the room was enough to jeopardize his style of life. He should have never let her in; then there'd be absolutely no question as to her being raped or not. Personally, it doesn't matter to me whether there was consensual sex or not. Kobe is married--he should have honored his marriage vow--being "just a man" or facing a moment of weakness, or whatever, does not excuse his behavior. He was wrong and now he's reaping what he sowed...this horrible allegation against him, all the negative press coverage, and the uncertainty of standing trial, being found guilty and having to go to prison. What an incredible mess to find oneself in...and for what?! A little romp in the hay? It's all so pathetic...isn't it.
