Bam.

Wait, so he didn't do it?

I don't think he raped her, but Bryant's lawyers filed to have the case dismissed and I guess her lawyers are going to agree.

I highly doubt this case would end, and SI did report a secret conversatiom between Kobe and the police or so the day it all took place saying he didn't have sex with her, only to say he did a few days or weeks later if I'm not mistaken.

If this does indeed end as soon as tomorrow, I'm thinking Kobe wrote a big check for this to go away.

I hope he didn't write a big check because he didn't rape her. The evidence against the girl is so much that he couldn't possibly have done so. And despite everything else, who, after getting raped, says, "You know what? I want to go have more sex!"

Nobody.

Not to mention she is one ugly bih.

He didnt rape her but he did have sex with here shes just an ugly bitch tryin to get money off of someone rich.

Breaking news on TV now, looks like the case is over on the will of the victim only. Seems like a write off to me, but whatever.

EAGLE, Colo. (AP) -- The Kobe Bryant case collapsed Wednesday as prosecutors said they had no choice but to drop the sexual assault charge against the NBA star because the alleged victim did not want to testify.

With the parents of the 20-year-old accuser looking on, District Judge Terry Ruckriegle threw out the case under a deal that means no charges will be refiled.

``The people have filed a motion to dismiss this case based on the fact the sole victim at this time is unable to go forward,'' District Attorney Mark Hurlbert told the judge. He said the alleged victim did not want to participate in the trial, including taking the stand.

The woman's attorney, John Clune, said his client has been through an extremely difficult time over the past 14 months and was disturbed by a series of courthouse mistakes that included the release of her name and medical history.

``It is in her sincere belief that when this case ends she does not want to be brought back into the criminal process,'' Clune told the judge. ``The difficulties that this case has imposed on this woman the past year are unimaginable.''

Ruckriegle admitted mistakes had been made and took full responsibility.

The prosecution dropped the case as jury selection was beginning to wrap up. Opening statements had been expected next Tuesday.

Bryant, 26, has said he had consensual sex with a then-19-year-old employee of a Vail-area resort where he stayed last summer. Had he been convicted, the Los Angeles Lakers star would have faced four years to life in prison or 20 years to life on probation, and a fine up to $750,000.

Bryant still faces a federal civil lawsuit filed by the accuser that seeks unspecified damages.

Defense attorneys this week asked the judge to dismiss the assault charge, saying prosecutors had refused to turn over details that could suggest Bryant is innocent. Court rules require prosecutors and defense attorneys to exchange evidence and witness opinions before trial, a process called discovery.

In a motion made public Wednesday, defense attorneys said a forensics expert whom prosecutors had planned to call as a witness had information that ``undermined the accuser's allegations and the prosecution's case, and corroborated Mr. Bryant's defense on a central issue -- the cause and significance of the accuser's alleged injuries.''

The filing said those opinions were not disclosed to the defense until they contacted the expert Friday, despite repeated requests to prosecutors for the information. Prosecutors have said they have turned over all information they were required to.

``A person's life and liberty are at stake,'' the defense attorneys wrote. ``The game of hide-the-ball, find-it-if-you-can discovery is intolerable. This court must vindicate Mr. Bryant's constitutional rights and impose meaningful sanctions against the prosecution.''

The motion does not identify the expert, but prosecutors this spring had said they planned to call former New York City medical examiner Michael Baden to testify about the woman's injuries.

Hurlbert had said during a July 19 hearing he had decided against using Baden. He did not elaborate.

The defense motion was first reported by ABC News, which cited unidentified sources who said Baden told prosecutors the woman's injuries could have been caused by consensual sex. Baden did not return messages Wednesday.

The defense has argued that injuries found on the woman could have been caused by sex with someone else in the time surrounding her encounter with Bryant, including someone afterward and before she went to a hospital. The woman's attorneys have denied that claim.

She didn't want to testify because she knew she'd be grilled like a Carl's Jr. 6-Dollar Burger.

Nah, they had all the evidence in the world. Only possible reason I see she asking for this case to end is because she got money out of this. Or else, why do it now and not a few months ago? I still say Kobe could of been convicted.

Dude, you're just pissed since now your avatar is even more annoying because he's also legally not a rapist. The stupid bitch was just going for attention & money the entire time and she decided to drop it once it came to her testifying in court. If he could have been convicted her lawyers wouldn't have dropped it.

Just because she dropped the case doesn't she Kobe didn't rape her.

One could say after what SI release last night about how Kobe said he didn't have sex with her the night this all took place only to say he did later on, Kobe decided to write off a big check for this to go away.

Is she? I remember trying to find some pics of her when this thing first started. Didnt find any then , and a quick search just now didnt give me anything either.
She's a ghost :chu:

"Although I truly believe this encounter between us was consensual, I recognize now that she did not and does not view this incident the same way I did,'' Bryant said. "I now understand how she feels that she did not consent to this encounter.'' - Kobe Bryant, part of the statement that was said after the cas being dismissed.

Then the stupid bitch must not have spoken up until after the fact. If she had stated that she didn't want him before the fact, the above statement wouldn't have been made.

Just because I have consensual sex with someone and 2 days later the girl decides she really didn't want to dosen't make it rape. It makes it a poor decision on her behalf.

Awesome, I've been waiting for this to happen. Good for Kobe.

Please respect the privacy of the alleged victim in this thread and elsewhere on TNL.

Yeah, that was the thing. I couldn't believe it was under consideration to keep that out of court given it was before she went to the police.

You mean aside from trying to remain anonymous in the midst of the most widely publicized rape trial since Fatty Arbuckle?

If you want to discuss the alleged victim's identity or sex life, do it elsewhere.

I wanted Kobe to go to jail because Im a racist fuck.

No, you wanted Kobe to go to jail because you're a poor racist fuck. If anyone with less than a couple million to pay for their defense got put up on these charges, they'd probably already be doing hard time. Not the rich. Two Americas.

Wee, rich man buys justice by slandering the victim , justice has clearely been served:P Not saying that i know for a fact that he was a rapist or not, but his attourneys won by playing a card lower than the race card, slander the victim till knuckle draggers decide that "the stupid bitch"made it up. i hope he becomes a pariah like o.j. (who as you recall, was also not guilty...right?)

Have no idea. Im just curious to see what the hell Kobe almost gave up his career, and hot ass wife for. She better NOT be a fat whitey...

i think they showed a shot of her from behind in some court tv show...she was kinda thick. definitely not better than his wife.

She's a fat white girl now. Dunno about when she had sex with him. Maybe she was a few pounds lighter then.

And sleeve, you could have pm'ed me to remove her name. I don't like the word "victim" being in the title of my thread, so could you just change the title to the thing about the charges being dropped?

Dude, have you payed attention to the case at all? This girls case fell apart little by little until it finally collapsed this week. First it started becoming apparent that the chick had some mental problems then we all found out she had sex with somebody right after her encounter with Koby. Who the hell has sex after getting raped?

Her case didnt really collapse, as there was still some strong evidence for the rape like her blood on Kobe's shirt. I was just watching something about this on Fox News Channel and they said that the prosecution's case wasnt airtight but it was certainly winnable. So STFU.

Pink is pink.

She's still suing for money, in case you didn't know, she kept the civil case, which means that she didn't get shit.

The fact of the matter is that the courts allowed the defense to use her sexual history, and she was getting banged out by more guys than a japanese bukkake idol, both before and after the rape alligations. There were three different mens' sperm found on her, including Kobe, some guy she fucked before Kobe, and some guy she fucked after Kobe.

She was a hoe, out for money. I'm not saying Kobe was right, but everyone knows that if you had a hundred million dollars, you'd be getting the pussy thrown at you probably over 50 times a day and after a while resistance breaks, unless you're literally Jesus.

Kobe's only mistake was getting caught, because I bet he's cheated once or twice since then too, and you know that he cheated before that time he got caught as well. Basically, if you're Kobe, or in Kobe's position, nobody you get with is going to marry you because they love you, it's because you're a free ride through life. Even his wife knows that in her heart. She's the most expensive hoe of them all. The queen hoe, if you will. If you're in that position, you should lay it out like a true 100 million dollar man, and just say, 'Look, I tour the world, I'm fucking sluts. But you're the queen slut. Sign the prenup."

ive seen plenty of bukkake videos (ahem), and, well, no guys really bang them. They just jizz in their face.

So basically... yea you used a bad example.

:lol: yeah but still you're resistance should break on someone hotter than you're wife.

I didn't know about her blood on Kobe's shirt so you got me there but the whole thing seemed futile. They were talking about how her case wasn't going to work and how she had mental problems and whatnot before I even joined the Marines. I didn't know the whole thing with the case but I do know what the media was saying for the most part. I'm not really defending here but I don't think Kobe raped her, just wouldn't make sense with somebody who could've just hired an expensive hooker would've raped a chick because "she didn't want to have sex with him." He's a low-down sleeze-ball for cheating on his wife but not a rapist (in my opinion anyhow).

i didn't know about the blood shit how the hell did the defense get around that?

I'm pretty sure I remember reading that Baden was going to refute even that to corroborate Kobe's defense further. If not, that's a good point. Winnable, but how winnable with the rest of the evidence?

i think maybe she had some bad lawyers because...her BLOOD WAS ON HIS SHIRT theres only so many ways you could write that off.

Haven't you ever watched anime and seen guys get a nose-bleed when they see breasts?

Clearly her nose erupted all over her shirt when Kobe whipped out his enormous black cock. It's the most simple explanation.
