Did anyone think he was going to get convicted?
I knew if OJ Simpson could get off murder charges that there is no way Kobe was going to get convicted. Especially after the Lakers gave him 100 million.

Rape is a lot like murder...
Even though the victim or victim's family may not want to pursue the case, the prosecution will.
I honestly don't think they had a case or they wouldn't have dropped it.
Do you know how much money Marcia Clark, Chris Darden and Lance Ito made just for being participants in the O.J. case? They got book deals, TV shows, appeared in movies etc...
Trial lawyers careers are made by actually going to court...I think the prosecutor was way more upset about that than he was about some 'random' girl who was allegedly raped.
Think about John Edwards...Do you really think he would have been elected to the Senate if he was a sh1tty trial lawyer? Convictions or acquittals are what make a trial lawyer great...and that propels their careers to other things.
Like maybe vice-president of the United States...

DeeCee Buddy, if Edwards is going to be VP, Kerry better gets his balls out his wife's purse b/c their crucifying the guy right now! BTW, did you any of you catch the Hardball interview with Zell Miller after the convention last night? Zell also had a complete meltdown, but it civil again towards the end.

I didn't catch it...I've had to take my politics in small doses these days...As you can tell from my posts yesterday, I wasn't too successful at controlling my outbursts and emotions. I caught part of what Zell Miller said on the radio this morning...don't have a comment right now... I caught the Daily Show last night...that seems to be the only thing I can stomach... Yeah...John Kerry is getting bullied and is startin' to look like a punk... We'll see what happens...

The conversation be Chris Matthews and Miller got pretty heated last night. I didn't get to see most of Miller's speech, but I read it and it didn't really change my mind. I'm still undecided and probably will be until the debates. Like I said yesterday, enough with the war on terror let's talk about other issues that effect of all like deficit reduction plans and fiscal policy. Maybe Bush will lay out his plan tonight.

That's why he's so successful. He's an equal opportunity offender.

I knew he wouldn't get convicted, plus why would he rape her when he could do almost any girl he wanted compared to that girl who wasn't that hot. I seriously don't think he raped her.

My mom gets people like the women all the time at the hospital. It's a cry for help. Who knows, mabye Kobe's wife wasn't putting out. She played the stupid wife role in staying with him.

They probably did not have much of a case against him. However, Kobe still should not have put himself in that position.
