Who the heck does that? A few years ago I was assaulted. I needed the rapist to pay me now, but I don't want him to go to jail. WHAT THE HECK???

ANYONE THAT WANTS CIVIL MONEY NOT CRIMINAL JUSTICE IS PROBABLY A GOLD DIGGING LIAR

Rapist deserve jail. That is not what this is.

There's a lot of armchair attorneys in here who don't have the slightest clue what they're talking about. The fact that she waited to file suit on a tort claim means absolutely nothing. It happens all the time. I'd go so far as to say that it's the rule and not the exception. I have about 10-15 civil cases on my desk right now that were filed anywhere from 4 months to 3 years after the alleged harm.

She's filed a civil lawsuit, but now we're learning shortly after the alleged incident, she went to LAPD cops who dismissed her claim because her story didn't make sense. What's more ... law enforcement says at the time she went to cops, she was already talking about a lawsuit, and that made them even more suspicious.

We're told the woman subsequently made financial demands on Nick -- to either pay up or face a lawsuit.

Let's be honest here, chicks (groupies) are just lining up to bone athletes. It'd be completely moronic for Nick to have use a drug to get in her panties.

Not saying he did or didn't but I just find it unlikely.

Im not gonna sit here and act like she is setting him up or that he is definitely guilty. If he did it then he deserves punishment. Everybody else stfu. No need to act like you know exactly what happened that night. But then again if everybody stfu then online forums wouldnt thrive now would they?

Nothing to see here. Another hoe looking for a handout. I wonder if women, especially feminists, today realize they are marginalizing the word "rape" more and more by turning every sexual decision they regret into "rape" because they never want to take responsibility for their own actions. Got tag teamed last night and you're ashamed? Just call it rape! Guy kicked you out and made you feel like crap after you had sex with him? Rape! All it does is desensitize people to how horrible REAL rape is.

Most people don't commit rape out of desperation but more so out of violent tendencies. So anybody no matter their ability to get laid consensually can be prone to rape.

This is a gross generalization, most level headed feminists and other people genuinely concerned for social justice look to fight against that kind of irresponsible language.

Not all women give it up basketball players.



So your saying that this chick was just so hott that he had to have her? that he had to risk his career and drug a woman just to get it in? not saying its not possible but seems like a lot just to sleep with a stranger, especially when you have more opportunities than the average joe.

Its called being a dumbass which Nick Young is.

It seems like your thought process is:

No prosecution = actual innocence.

Kobe's own admissions, as well as his apology and subsequent payoff, seem to indicate that something bad happened. Even if it wasnt a forcible rape.


Her character issues created problems for the prosecution in terms of trying the case; they didn't absolve Kobe of all responsibility, IMO.


Not true. When her peers go out of their way to let it be known that she was bragging about the incident after the rape accusation that is a big red flag. These are people she personally knows. What rape victim does that? I understand that the girl may not need to go about screaming rape, but if it was legit she doesn't need to be all cheery to others about the situation while bragging about sleeping Kobe and talking about his penis (yes this apparently happened). The way I see it, is those people she knew went out of their way to prevent someone being wrongly incriminated.

Also of course, Kobe did something wrong even if it wasn't "forcible rape". Kobe committed adultery, which is a well known fact and tells how much of how poor his character is, but this not punishable.

Id stop dude because you are just making it worse. Her being mentally unstable only makes it worse for the accused. Its well-known that predators target these types of girls. Lets face it there is no justification for rape and the fact that you think these are some kind of mitigating factors is sick.

And as far as the bragging part goes--it was fairly well-known that she had been wiht Kobe that night. People were already going to assume she had sex with him because why else would Kobe be with some random girl. So she can either tell people she was raped or she can "brag'. What would you expect her to do?


You can argue the mentally unstable part both ways. Mentally unstability is often a result after LEGITIMATE rape. However, this girl was taking prescriptions to schizophrenia 4 months before the event.

I have no clue where you got that information that everyone knew she was sleeping with Kobe right after the incident. If you read the reports, she wanted to get an autograph from Kobe because she knew he was there. She came out after some time and according to the hotel auditor stated she looked fine and didn't seem upset at all. Second, she was openly bragging about the situation you don't need to indicate sarcasm with the quotes. She was talking about his dick and the whole situation in a cheerful manner.

I think it's sickening that you automatically assume that Kobe and possibly Nick Young are automatically guilty when there is little evidence to suggest so. Rape is a very serious crime that deserves at least 20 years+. However falsely accusing for rape is a very minor crime (about 10-90 days in a county jail). I feel there needs to more of a punishment for those who have been caught for falsely accusing rape so the legitimate rape cases get more attention, but that's aside the point.

As I mentioned before, I am SKEPTICAL not siding with anyone for this whole Nick Young rape situation. All I did say was that I'd wait for more info before making a judgement.

I made the mistake of assuming Kobe was guilty after hearing the rape case, and after hearing more information it doesn't seem as likely. This is why I remain skeptical even today. I'm personally not a fan of Kobe or Young so I have no personal motivation with my reasoning

Very sensitive issue. From what I've discerned about Nick Young though, he doesn't really seem like a "rapist-type" to me. Of course rapists come in all shapes and sizes so what do I know

Nick Young is being sued for sexual assault by a woman for an incident that occurred in West Hollywood in 2011.

Young allegedly bought champagne for the woman and her friend, and then slipped the date rape drug gamma-Hydroxybutyric acid into the beverage because her memory of the evening ended shortly thereafter.

Young admitted to the woman the next morning that he had sex with her but then stopped when she passed out. The woman was bleeding from her vagina and rectum.

When Young took the woman home, she then went to the UCLA Santa Monica Rape Treatment Center, where she took a rape kit and was tested for STDs.

Young is being sued for sexual battery, sexual assault and false imprisonment.

Young spent the 12-13 NBA season with the Philadelphia 7ers and will be a free agent this offseason.

I don't think most rapists NEED to rape women. There's plenty of sex out there available that you don't need to rape someone to get it. But I think for rapists it's more about the power trip.

Which isn't to say Nick Young is a rapist. Just that the fact that he's a superstar athlete doesn't mean he wouldn't rape someone. In fact, probably quite the contrary. It's very different to have sex with a groupie who is throwing herself at you, and it's another thing entirely to take sex from someone who hasn't given their consent. If he did it, it's because he needed to feel something beyond just having sex.


I understand the point your trying to make and it is valid. My point is that Nick Young has a lot to lose by committing a crime just to "feel something beyond just having sex". If he was really to the point where he couldn't control his urges and needed something else to satisfy his "desires" i would think that there would be multiple cases or at least other "females" talking about the "wierd" things Nick young is making them do. By all indications, nick young maybe be stupid, but have yet to read article let a lone tweet(etc) about him being a pervert.


Additionally those claiming that when ever a female claims rape , the general reaction is she's lying , need to slow down and stop acting like there aren't money/gold digging whores in this world that haven't tried this before. i think in general when a woman claims rape, majority of posters and men on this board look at the facts before making any proclamations. Like most have said, as of right now, with the facts of this case, it seems as if that's exactly what this girl is, gold digging. If posters don't like that opinion , show some facts that disprove it and i will be the first poster to admit i was wrong.

The default mode isn't "girl is a gold digging slut".

Default mode should be to let the justice system work. You know nothing about the girl or nick young.

problem is that level headed feminists are out numbered. i tend to agree with fatal9 that there are too many females trying to take advantage of the system and that the consequences of this is being paid by the real victims. By all indications, this case with nick young is proving fatal9's point
