OT: TMZ - Rose being sued/accused of drugging and gang raping former GF

I just hope for Derrick Rose's sake that this isn't true and it's put to bed real quick. Real or not, a rape accusation is never a good look or a light manner.

What backlash?

Automatically being labeled a money hungry liar by many.

Going straight for a civil suit gives credence to that theory (burden of proof is lower). Perhaps she tried to bring criminal charges and the police wouldn't investigate. I guess we'll find out.

Could it also be that since the rape allegedly happened years ago she knows it may be harder to provide evidence, so her best chance at receiving justice is through a civil suit? I hope we find out more soon.

To me this sounds like a bad breakup with a gold digger who thought he would marry her and who now wants to extort him. I find it hard to believe that Rose would date her for two years and then decide to drug her. There are also several parts of her story that don't make any sense.

Even that doesn't add up. Rose and Meika weren't even broken up that long from what I remember, a year tops.

Have you heard of the San Francisco 49ers?

Randall Hampton is not the type of guy to do something like this. Hampton and Rose are always together and hopefully a statement is made soon.

I refuse to jump to conclusions.

If this is true, he should go to prison for life.

If this is a lie, she should also serve a severe punishment.

Rape is serious chit..so why didn't the girl report this right away? Makes no sense to me. And now how are they ever gonna prove it? His word against hers.

lol and the judge will laugh it out.

This is a civil suit, 2 years later, and it's very easy to sue someone just file the paperwork. I hate to be that guy but if there was ever a BS rape accusation, this is it. She's most likely a side piece down on her luck that did indeed **** Derrick and have a relationship with him that has decided she might be able to get him to pay her a couple hundred thousand just to keep his name out of the papers.

Civil suit people, that is a big red flag and two years after the fact is an even redder one. I bet Derrick cheats and sleeps around but none of this story makes sense. If it was so bad, the police would have almost surely been involved right way. Home invasion on top of the rape? Did none of her neighbors notice? Her roomate?

The whole thing sound made up for effect and with the Cosby think in the news suddenly people are like "oh, drugs...rape...Derrick Rose". If nothing else she has a great "pay me this and I'll drop it and won't reveal things like your ____".

She wants to embarrass him. Even the timing right as the season is around the corner seems odd to me.

I can guarantee based on your post that you don't know a damn thing about the rules of evidence in a civil trial.

I mentioned that she might've gone to the police first. If she didn't, it's suspect. Not dispositive of anything, but suspect.

Like why? I don't understand why they do this. Same crap happened with Jameis a month before the National Championship. Ugh....

This isn't even just a rape case. She is (allegedly) alleging that she was drugged, then escaped, and then Rose and his friends broke into her home and gang raped her.

That's maniacal type of behavior right there. If it's true, there should be considerable amount of evidence to support her claims. If it's not true, this should be disposed of pretty quickly.

Let the legal system play out and prove whether her allegations are true, or falsehoods.

To get in a bash fest pretty much will sum up why women are scared so often to come forward because of the backlash they will receive.

Although I will say, if these allegations are proven false, there needs to be a civil suit in the opposite direction. It's hard to get the term 'rapist' away from your name, even if you are cleared of any wrongdoing.

The bigger crime is if she is lying, not Derrick Roses reputation but how it will weaken the case of women who are actually raped. It damages actual cases. I have a friend who took on her rapist (campus policeman) and it was tough and it was even with multiple victims. Hell 20 years later she still at times can't have her husband in the same room as her. It actually took years to build a case.

I have six friends that were raped that will never go to court because of how traumatic it is and the shaming is so tough to swallow. Then you have the case of the who texted she was coming over for sex and then later claims rape. That is a huge crime because it dis empowers all actual victims.

TMZ reports trash but they have a lock tight legal crew who won't let them say anything that could get them sued.

I have no clue who is wrong in this zero all would be speculation but either way it is awful.

I never like dismissing any woman who says she was raped or sexually assaulted, but this seems weird. If she was incapacitated how does she know they broke into her apartment? It'll be interesting to see if she really did date Derrick for 2 years like she says.
