Civil Lawsuit Filed Against Ben Roethlisberger

[Zcustom]

"At that point, he allowed her to get off the bed. McNulty claims that she went to the bathroom, and "tried to pull herself together."

^^^^^^^^^

So, she gets raped, and when he lets her go her thought process was "Let me go freshen up in the bathroom".

hmmmmmm

It's all about the details, just so people understand her clear recognition of that night....

Whether he did anything or not I wouldn't be surprised if he looses out on this, or ends up settling it quietly. Civil suits are usually slanted in the plaintiffs advantage. The defendant basically has to prove they did no harm vs the assumption of innocence until proven guilty in a criminal case.

espn sucks ass.and once again it all boils down too what color you are....lets say vince young did this i bet espn would have stop showing bullpoo sportscenter and begin talking about this story.its sad really, but like i said in another post.racism built this country and it will never go away.lets see how much gets swept under the carpet lmbao!!!!!!!

It is almost comical how damn near every thread on here becomes racial at some point. At least you can depend on the consistency of some people who post on here.

The case with Kobe started with criminal charges being filed quickly after the "alleged" incident.

This is a little different in that it is only a civil suit being filed a year after the "alleged" event.

Not inferring that one happened and the other didn't, but the latter smells a little more fishy on the surface....no pun intended.

No, no you don't. The trial hasn't even started. You know that we are innocent until proven guilty regardless of color or charge. Of course that seems to be more theory than in practice in public opinion, which I don't agree with. I agree with you, they would be all over this if it was not their golden child. And that's wrong, it's just wrong. But we can't convict until the evidence comes out. That would be wrong too...

I'm with you on a double standard, but with this being a civil case it's more personnel than public, the KB case and this one don't necessarily compare as far as news worthiness..

Your neighbor could file a civil suit for your dog crapping on his lawn. Pro athletes, and their life styles (actually their wallets) are big ol targets, I'm amazed they don't get targeted more often... Fish in a barrel.

I'm in complete agreement with everything you said.

Then why play the race card? I agree that it exists and don't like it, but why play it if you don't believe it to be true as far as guilt is concerned? I don't understand...

bc it shows how unconsistant things are.when blacks are in wrong,we hang them.when a white guy does it,he just don't know any better slap on the wrist.i hate that race plays part into things but real poo it does.

I don't like it either, I think it sucks, but you freely admit that you think it was consensual sex with regrets afterward, so I asked the question based upon that statement...

No, some choose to use their brain instead of conveniently pulling out the race card instead. As far as Kobe, I think most may agree that he didn't rape her, but the issue most people had with Kobe was that he cheated on his wife. Im sure most people here would feel the same if Ben was married AND he admitted having sex with another woman.

so bc he is not married its ok for this not to be in the media like other topics.thats the worst poo i've heard all day.....im not playing the race here just a little confused why espn is not touching this story.
