EAGLE, Colo. -- 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 could no longer participate.

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.

it is depressing that 2 million $$$ worth of taxpayer dollars were wasted due to an inept sheriff & an over-zealous prosecutor...

It is a shame that a young lady who is almost definately lieing has made several million dollars (in all likelehood) from her lies.

 

[HacheMan]

10~1 says a settlement was reached secretly with the victim.........

 

[lander]

Another criminal buys freedom, while thousands of innocent poor men rot away in prison.

Because justice will not be served.

What's depressing to me is that rich popular sports figures can get away with rape and murder.

There is NO WAY Kobe would have been convicted anyway.

All of the dogs will have there day .....

Life is short.

 

[kyhawk]

We will never know the truth. Maybe she lied?
I gurantee she will get a potload of money from Kobe.

fishhead - why do you think justice will not be served?

 

[SportSavant]

Kiss, FISH,

I agree with you... OJ case was sickening... & that of many other atheletes aswell...

In this case KOBE is not guilty of anything but adultury... (evidence wise anyway) this girl had Semen from another man on her panties that got there some 15 hours after KOBE's

she had called 911 twice before with false claims...

The Sheriff chose to charge KOBE without talking to prosecutor...

Maybe he is guilty... ONLY HE & HER KNOW THAT...

But this is definatly not "BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT"

nor does it even meet the burden for a CIVIL trial "BALANCE OF PROBABILITIES".

please re-evalute your close minded positions... is it not at least a 50/50 chance that she was in it for the $$$$ which she not got?

 

[SportSavant]

oh, did I mention that she had bragged about a plan to sleep with eminem when he was at the same hotel & was insinuating using him?

 

[lander]

I believe that sexual predators like Kobe should face the punishment of castration.

That is the only way to protect society from these monsters.

Let's start with Kobe and Chumura, and I bet we'll see a HUGE decrease in the number of teenagers raped by athletes.

 

[SportSavant]

yeah lander...

& there is someone else out there who beleives that all gamblers should have their hands cut off as their lives have been ruined by it...

 

[sherman]

Fish, I believe justice WAS served!

 

[DrunkenHorseplayer]

Anyone who claims rape but makes sure they get laid again before they go to the hospital is a stone-cold liar. This chick should be forced to return all the money she's already made and if she writes a book then she should be forced to give Bryant all the proceeds.

Yeah, ruining your own life is clearly comparable to ruining another's via rape

Choice would seem to have very little weight in your skewwed formula.
