To be fair, I'd suggest DNA evidence didn't prove she wasn't raped but that she was not raped by the man convicted of the crime.
I'd suggest it says more about the american legal system and the accuracy of eye witness evidence when the attacker is unknown to the victim.
All that said though, you are right, not all allegations are true.
Agreed. He is black..... says it all in the good old US of A.
And Grumps, is that the issue for you with Lovett in this instance?
Do you believe that Lovett has been treated this way by the girl, players, Club, Police and everybody else because he is indigenous?
Your posts on this issue have continued to defend him, IMO, far more than even-handedly than it would appear on face value he should be?
You seem to want everybody (authorities and Club included) to bend over backwards to give him whatever his legal strategists demand, without any thought of him possibly being guilty of the serious accusations levelled against him.
Everything he is doing is a legal strategy cooked up by his defense team to maximize any income he can get.
The defense team in all of this is not his defense team in the actual sexual assault case.
They are completely separate and are acting for their own reasons, independant of the sexual assault case.
.
If they want their Grievance Tribunal case heard quickly, why not instruct Lovett to have his sexual assault case heard speedily, instead of delaying it for as long as possible?
It wouldn't be because they realize that a guilty finding would totally destroy any case they're running for money would it?
