Almost in her next breath, Mackey infuriated both the judge and the prosecution by suggesting the woman's injuries were "consistent with a person who has had sex with three different men in three days."

What an incredibly stupid thing for a defense attorney to have said.
She might as well be working for the prosecution.

Desperation tactic. Defense's only hope is to take shots at the victim, damage her in the minds of future jurors, try to upset her emotionally so that she appears unstable when cross examined during the trial. Looks bad for Kobe. Just a probable cause hearing and his lawyers already going scorched earth.

She's not stupid. This kind of excrement has worked for her before. That's why Bryant hired her. He's getting exactly what he paid for.

Agreed. When I read that, my reflex was revulsion and the strong desire to slap her silly. The stupid twerp.

That was my reaction, to this statement and the blatant multiple uses of the victim's name.
