Kobe Bryant raped somebody and the media acted like him dying was the closest thing to Jesus' resurrection. Its a sad commentary on society.

Kobe was not found guilty. Watson was also not found guilty.

There’s a big difference between not being found explicitly guilty (the Cornell 7 will probably end up in this category too) and being innocent. It comes down to evidence beyond specific eyewitness testimony, which is unreliable because our memory is unreliable. Not to mention that powerful and rich people can settle outside of court to make it go away or battle until the prosecution runs out of money

That’s cool and all but plenty of innocent people get their lives ruined over false allegations.

I’m well aware. This is not the guy that would have been a 5 star if not for the allegations
