Talk:Kobe Bryant sexual assault case

Many people in the discussion of the kobe bryant page believed that the Sexual Assault part was taking up too much of the article and making it too long. I thought that, since this whole section was objectible, I would add a link to this page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Daniel 123 (talk • contribs)

You still need to clean up the references on this page (i.e., move the relevant citations from the original article here). OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 01:39, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Somebody had made "on bond" a link, but I changed it to on "bond" so as not to include "on" in the link.Daniel_123 | Talk 18:53, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Evidence in the trial

I think the readers would benefit greatly if we can add a section of evidence presented at the preliminary and the rumoured evidence the Prosecution never presented. For example, off my head I can think of the three semen samples found on Ms. Faber's clothing, inside her and on her neck, the night auditor's affidavit, the forensic expert's testimony, and Detective Winter's testimony.

Revert "***"'s

I reverted two edits that consisted solely of replacing the accuser's name with "***" on second and subsequent references. Note that the first reference was left intact. I am not taking a position on whether it is proper to name the accuser; I assume this principle was the subject of a long, heated debate on this page and other articles relating to sexual assault accusations. I am reverting this for two reasons: a) it makes absolutely no sense to censor subsequent references when the first instance of the name is left intact; and b) if consensus is that the accuser should not be named (and again, I am taking no position on this), "***" is an unacceptable way to implement this.75.139.35.32 11:56, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

People are innocent till proven guilty. If Mr. Bryant's name out there, and ruining his reputation, why should the accuser receive special treatment? we assume People are innocent until they're proven guilty. Kwame1234 16:22, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

I agree with the last comment to a certain extent, though cases of rape or sexual assault do have a profoundly different effect on the accuser/victim than most other charges. It would probably be best if the media wasnt involved in any court case regardless of how famous the accused/accuser is and especially when it is a case of rape/sexual assault. This case will always leave a question mark hanging over Bryant's head because people with different agendas can use it to their own end.

• Whoever is taking out Dead Women Tell No Tales is full of bs. It's freaking been PUBLISHED and is a BOOK OUT, you guys who are taking it out are a joke. It's part of the CASE, the AFTERMATH of it, a WHOLE BOOK being published.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.62.1.112 (talk • contribs)
