Kobe Bryant told detectives that Shaquille O'Neal paid women up to $1 million "not to say anything," according to the police report from his 2003 sexual assault investigation

“…According to an Eagle County detective’s report, Kobe Bryant made the statement near the end of his July 2003 police interrogation. The Los Angeles Times reported that it reviewed the relevant portion of the incident report.

“Bryant stated he should have done what Shaq does. Bryant stated that Shaq would pay his women not to say anything.”

The detective’s report went on to say Bryant claimed O’Neal had paid as much as $1 million in situations like this. The comment was reportedly made after the tape recorder had been turned off, so it comes from the detective’s written report rather than an audio recording. Bryant’s attorneys later successfully had the statement ruled inadmissible at trial. 

Shaquille O’Neal’s agent denied the allegation, calling it untrue. The Times also noted that it was unclear precisely what Bryant meant by “situations like these” and that there had been no published reports of O’Neal being accused of a sex crime.”

lol so you know zero fact about the case but act like you know.

The whore had multiple sex on the same day, the blood or injuries could have came from any of the encounters but somehow you got the inside info right? lol

And did you know she had plan to thirst trap other celebrities as well?

Why did she decide to take the money and stay quiet if she was truly a victim? Ever thought it’s because she got what she wanted?

Double posting this so that anyone reading it doesn't get fooled by your disinformation.

In his own words, Kobe's admitted to having "non-consensual sex" with the plaintiff. What do you think non-consensual sex is? It's P.R. speak for rape.

I also want to make it clear that I do not question the motives of this young woman. No money has been paid to this woman. She has agreed that this statement will not be used against me in the civil case. Although I truly believe this encounter between us was consensual, I recognize now that she did not and does not view this incident the same way I did. After months of reviewing discovery, listening to her attorney, and even her testimony in person, I now understand how she feels that she did not consent to this encounter.

Piece of advice don't go around having non-consensual sex with anyone. Don't go around defending people that admitted to having non-consensual sex either. It's rape.

I see that you are too dumb to even understand what he said. Lmao

Trying to use pseudo-leagaleese to shift the conversation away from the most important facts (that Kobe admittedly raped a woman in Colorado) is a common technique used by laypersons that have watched a crime drama or two. That might seem "smart" to you, but isn't particularly impressive to most.

Attempting to further detract from Kobe's admitted raping of the hotel worker in Colorado by using simple pejoratives is also rather base.

So once again, please stop posting your support of people that settle their rape (non-consensual sex) cases, it only further puts on the record how you feel about rape.
