I’ve not said much about the Bryant case. Mostly this is because I don’t follow basketball anymore, having fallen off the game when Larry Bird retired. I couldn’t care less for this one as far as Kobi’s star power goes.

But in a general sense, this case annoys me no end, because of the way rapes are handled in general in our criminal justice system, anymore.

Tell me something; Why is the accuser’s name not mentioned? 

To treat accusers so is to presume the accused is guilty.  Whatever else happens, regardless of his guilt or innocence, Bryant’s name is forver stained. THe accuser has little or nothing to lose.

Whatever happenened to “presumed innocent?”  The bottom line is, based on what I’m hearing already, she’s gotten used more often than a retired Mail Jeep. Apparently she decided Bryant was good for a few bucks, and went accordingly. And the number of times this happens is a direct result of our laws set the way they currently are.
