I'm with Kobe

Los Angeles Laker basketball player Kobe Bryant has been charged with felony sexual assault. This could be the end of his professional basketball career. It will almost certainly mean great monetary damage through the loss of commercial endorsements and other opportunities.

I will draw on my experiences representing athletes as an attorney to share some thoughts with you. Kobe Bryant is an athlete. This means that he is a target. After virtually every NBA basketball game you will find women hovering around arena exits who are willing to throw themselves into bed with almost any athlete that walks out of that door.

Some of these women just want another notch on their garter belt. Some of them are looking for something more – they're looking for money – lots of money. Their intention is to lie about birth control and have unprotected sex with the hope of getting pregnant. They know that having the child of a wealthy athlete is a guarantee of easy street for at least 18 years. No work, nice house, nice cars – the works.

Sound harsh? Trust me, these women are out there. The large brain of every athlete is aware of this fact. Disaster happens when they let the small brain do all the thinking. These athletes have been warned, but the testosterone level is almost as high as the hoop. Go have yourself a good time, then get out your checkbook.

The women who are merely looking for bragging rights of sex with a top athlete present another danger. That danger comes from the possibility of feelings of regret and humiliation, even fear. The danger the athlete faces is prison.

We have a case in Georgia right now where a high-school athlete has been sentenced to 15 years in prison for the rape of a classmate. Many who have studied the case believe this young man to be innocent. He's a National Honor Society student and scored over 1200 on his SATs. Hardly the profile of a sexual predator. But, the athlete is black and his victim was a white girl.

Some, me included, believe that somehow the girl's parents found out about an episode of consensual sex between the two, or at least the girl worried that this was about to happen. She was scared to death that her parents were going to find that she had been dating a young black man. Her solution? Claim she was raped. This black kid raped her. She then, in my opinion, stood back and watched this kid go off to 15 years in prison because she didn't want her parents and friends to find out the truth.

False accusations of rape are by no means unusual. In some cases, they are the rule. Eugene Kanin of the Department of Sociology and Anthropology at Purdue did a study of a small metropolitan community. The study covered rape allegations over a 9-year period. Dr. Kanin found that "False rape allegations constituted 41 percent of the total forcible rapes reported during [that] period."

A Harvard law professor reports that the woman in charge of prosecuting sexual-assault crimes in New York reported that out of approximately 4,000 rape allegations in Manhattan each year, about one-half of them just didn't happen. Another study states that 50 percent of all rape allegations lodged on college campuses in the United States are false.

Bryant is accused of rape in Eagle County, Colo. Eagle County is not exactly a black Mecca. Kobe Bryant's alleged rape victim is white. My gut feeling is that the sex was consensual, and then the regret and fear set in. Then came the rape allegation – an allegation possibly designed to save face and avoid embarrassment. Now that this matter has gone this far, perhaps the accuser is frightened – too frightened to step forward and put a halt to this disaster by telling the truth.

If Kobe Bryant forcibly raped this girl, send him to jail ... for a long time. If he is being put on trial because some young girl regrets a romp in the sack with an athlete and is afraid for her reputation, then the wrong person is going to trial.

In the meantime, we have a good lesson for other athletes out there, especially the younger ones who are loaded with athletic talent but not too burdened with judgment and common sense. Those women fawning over you can be dangerous. Your very freedom may be at jeopardy, not just your career. While you're doing your thing on the basketball court, there are predator's eyes watching your every move. Think.

Well, I'll start by saying I don't think there's any way in hell that Kobe raped that broad. It is a simple fact that rich and famous athletes are targets for every dumbass crazy chic that's out there, and there's a shitload of them. It's really not an excuse because if his wife half as "special" and "loved" her half as much as he claims he does then his dick wouldn't have been in another chic. So he's completely full of shit in my book.

Now I'd just like to make a comment because there was a female member who claimed that when a women claims "rape" that the odds are it actually happened and she thought Kobe was guilty. It turns out that damn near 50% of cases like this are just a bunch of shit! If I was a famous athlete I'd have a chic sign a consent form or something. Or I'd only fuck 5 chics at a time so I had a few witnesses. Anyway, if by some remote chance he did rape her I say chop his dick off and throw him in a gas chamber. If it turns out this bitch lied, which is most likely the case, I say throw the little drug addict in jail and let some hardcore criminals rape her dumb ass every day for the rest of her life.

if I were a famous athlete, I'd make 'em sign papers, tape it, then sell it all when I retire!

No matter which side is the truth, Kobe is going to learn a hard lesson about letting the little head do the thinking for the big head.

lafemmefatale · 07-23-2003, 06:48 PM

The odds are, apparently by this article [a little biased i'd say but it gave the proof] around 50/50 in reported cases, but not all cases are reported, in fact, very little cases are reported and those unreported cases...make up a huge amount of the total percentage of rapes commited.

My porblem with this isn't so much that i want Kobe Bryant to be guilty, he's a great athlete and all the rest of it and i really admire his skill, but the fact is that if this girl is lying...and found to be lying, a lot of men are gonna become skeptics of women in general, and criticize them, and not take them seriously when there is actual assault commited etc etc...that is a dangerous and scary attitude. Why do i think that'll happen?

We're already seeing it here. Kobe Bryant hasn't been proven guilty so by no means should he be condemned, but neither has the girl been found lying...it's all speculation based on the POTENTIAL psyche of the girl, yet so many ppl have already dubbed her as a liar who wants nothing but money. That is nothing but an awful double standard. If you assume that Kobe Bryant is innocent until proven guilty, then by all means it's only fair to consider the girl to be truthful until proven to be lying.

World's King · 07-23-2003, 07:14 PM

As far as we know she fell on a up-turned table and inpaled herself one of the legs... that's the only thing I can think of that would be similer to the size of black basketball player's dick.

She's just using Kobe as an excuse for being so stretched out now.

thedrake · 07-23-2003, 07:36 PM

Everyone who accuses this women of lying when the prosecutor has said there is obvious physical injuries on her...whether it was from Kobe or not....should not call this women a lier. In this society it seems that we put sports above everything else and that is sad. What happened to everyone is equal, just because Kobe is a good basketball player people are calling her a slut, if he was some bench player no one would give a shit. But of course we can't find him guilty because we assume he is a great guy, because he is a great basketball player. First of all, he cheated on his wife of which they have a child who is almost 2 years old, that right there is pathetic.

I might sound biased because my fiance was raped when she was 14 by a really good junior college basketball player that was supposed to go to the NBA, but thank god got around 15 years in jail. Of course she was accused of being a slut and screwing up the basketball team's season (because I guess they had a shot at the national championship), but it took a lot of therapy just to get over the people calling her a liar; besides the rape. No accuser, no matter who they are accusing, until proven that they are lying should be called a liar. That is like sticking a dagger into them. People, please be open-minded before all the evidence is given in any case.

I think any woman who falsely accuses a man of rape should be made to sit down in a room with a woman who was actually raped, look her in the eye and say:

"I'm part of the reason they don't believe you."

"The judge looked at your bruises and psychological torment with such a skeptical eye because of my vicious lies."

I say we cut their heads off, and put them on spikes the accused can use as lawn ornaments!!!

Revenge is always nice but then again you'd have unkempt lesbians groups protesting on your lawn before noon.

I definitely agree. Unfortunately it happens all too much. I know of three instances where a woman (well, girl if truth be told) has yelled "Rape!" and gotten people in very serious trouble when in fact there was nothing CLOSE to rape involved.

On the other hand, I've known quite a few rape victims, and the psychological distress that happens to true rape victims is absolutely sickening. Rapists should be punished severely, multiple times.
