I think he might have done it and usually I have athletes backs because girls are pretty money hungry but there was a lot of under the table stuff going on to settle.
Shit if the girl was willing to take money to shut up then I can't talk shit about Kobe because it obviously didn't mean that much to her so it doesn't mean shit to me.
Prosecutors said Bryant flirted with the woman, a front desk employee, during a tour of the resort. After the two ended up in his room, they began to kiss, which she acknowledged was consensual. Investigators have said the encounter turned violent and that she told Bryant “no” at least twice.
In the civil suit, the attorneys said at some point during the kissing “Bryant’s voice became deeper and his acts became rougher” as he began to grope the woman. She asked him to stop, but Bryant allegedly blocked her exit, grabbed her and forced her over a chair to rape her. Bryant’s hands were around the woman’s neck, the attorneys said — “a perceived threat of potential strangulation if she resisted his advances.”

yea and i can give you 100 articles saying that the victim had no credibility and she was a gold digger. whats your point? obviously neither of us know since we weren't there. and like all in aint nothin said, it didn't mean anything to her so why should anyone else care. thats the friggin supposed victim saying that.
SHE TOOK MONEY AND BLEW IT OFF LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED. Why do you care if the woman thought money was more valuable than the incident itself? I find it hilarious that people take this so personally but the girl herself didn't push on with the trial. She took money and shut up. I don't feel bad for her because it looks like she wanted money more than justice so it makes her seem a little bit off.
If she doesn't care you shouldn't care. End of story. Why do all these people want justice when the girl didn't even want justice.
As I said after reading through a lot of the case I think some force was put on but the girl clearly didn't give a shit once a little money was offered so other people that don't even know the girl shouldn't give a fuck. Rape is terrible and I find it very hard to believe that this girl could just move on from it because of a settlement. She could have gotten her settlement in Civil Court and got him in trouble with the law as well. That's what makes no sense. If she was able to prove him guilty in a criminal court it's way easier to prove someone guilty in a civil court. So why not do both if she really felt violated? Because money was enough for her to get over it so no one else should really care.
BTW I agree GTC. The white factor hurt Kobe. Shit people aren't mad at R-Kelly haha. I know it was consensual but the bitch was pretty young.
