What can I say about the Kobe sexual assault case.... Now the prosecution wants to delay the trial for an indefinite period. Whatever happened to the U.S. Constitution's 6th Amendment "right to a speedy trial"? Due to the accuser having been affected by developments in the case and the release of closed-door testimony which has hurt the prosecution's ability to get a fair jury. One must ask...Does the prosecution have a criminal case or was this a rush to judgment on their part to get an NBA star into court?
Now all of a sudden it looks like this whole thing was for money. If it's otherwise, then why would Kobe's accuser file a civil case? To win a civil lawsuit, a plaintiff must prove only that it is more likely than not harm was caused by the defendant. Prosecutors in a criminal case have to convince jurors beyond a reasonable doubt a defendant committed a crime, a much higher standard of proof.
'Nuff said!
