Its been a while since I studied that, but if she was promiscious a day after her "attack" wouldn't it be more likely a sign of an earlier abusive encounter?

I had thought that, too. I always thought that sexual promiscuity after rape or sexual abuse was common in people who had these events happen at a young age. When they're older, they use sexual promiscuity as a way to deal with it. I remember studying this while completing my sociology minor but promiscuity following rape/abuse in adulthood wasn't something the research I was reading dealt with.
This was my understanding, too - that's why I put a limit on the number of days. I've known more rape victims than I ever thought I would; maybe they're the exception to the rule, but none of them (that I can think of right now) was willing to be even touched within a month or so of the rape.

Let me state this upfront: If Kobe really did rape this woman, I hope he ends up in a cell with the hugest guy in any given prison, and I hope the woman ends up with every cent of the civil lawsuit. But I just get a hinky feeling about this one - and I'm not a big fan of Kobe to begin with.
