No he's not guilty. Let's look at some of yesterday's findings:
The panties she wore the next day to the courthouse had semen of a man other than Kobe and pubic hair of a white man. She says that this is not the same pair of underwear worn the night of the alleged rape.
1. Was she wearing dirty underwear that she just picked up off the floor that morning. NASTY! Maybe there should be a search warrant and they should examine all of her dirty underwear and find out how many different DNA matches they may find.
2. Did she have sex with someone after Kobe? That explains the semen and pubic hair. Now, if so....this is completely relevant because you DO NOT go out and have sex with someone right after being "raped".
Either way, she's a skank.

Okay, I agree with that last statement. If all of this is true, she is clearly a skank. However, I don't agree that any of the rest is relevant to the fact that Kobe may or may not have raped her. Just because she allegedly had sex with multiple partners doesn't meant she's not capable of being raped. We have to remember that Kobe DID admit to having sex with her. With that admission, all this talk about DNA is irrelevant. Personally, I wouldn't have sex with anyone soon after a rape, but that doesn't mean it's not possible. It's not like she was viciously attacked by some deranged lunatic in an alley. She alleges that it started as consensual kissing it went too far. Maybe it wasn't all that traumatizing to her and she's able to carry on normal sexual relationships. That still doesn't mean that it wasn't rape.
Now, I say all that to say I don't know if Kobe raped her. However, coming from a strictly legal perspective, the defense has presented nothing but irrelevant rhetoric. I believe the prosecution has convincing evidence in its arsenal and the defense better have something more than the "oh, but she's a slut" defense at the time of trial.
