Typo or not, it's truth.

Yep, that was a typo, but a funny one.

3 Tampa sports talk stations are trying to make an Alabama connection. A lady reporter asked the SA & Winston's attorney if the victim or accuser whatever you prefer had a connection to the University of Alabama.

This whole thing stinks & now some are trying to blame Bama.

I will pray for a miracle win by Duke on Saturday. If that doesn't happen I will be pulling for whatever team FSU plays in the BCS NC, even if it is the Barn or Urban's team.

That's why I don't listen to the sports radio station here in Tampa. They are very anit-Alabama and Coach Saban. They can be discussing the Florida-FSU game and will point out something negative about Alabama or Coach Saban. smh

Alabama seems to be the popular scapegoat at the moment. We were on the grassy knoll, broke into the Watergate complex, filmed the moon landings in a studio, know where Jimmy Hoffa is buried, I could keep going.

To clarify my comments, yes they are broad brushed and extreme. It was made to make a point. Again, no one knows all the facts except for Jameis and the witnesses if there were witnesses. You can take either her attorneys comments which show that they weren't completely honest or you can take Jameis'attorneys comments as honest though we know their are inconsistencies there also. So for someone to pick sides is silly since we don't know what really happened.
I have stayed many times that if Jameis did this then he should be punished. If he didn't, she should be. I'm just not going to call someone a rapist when I don't know. If it makes you feel good to call someone that when you don't know all the facts then so be it.
I know of a case personally, where a friend of mine was accused of rape in high school. No one ever would believe she lied because she was thought to be such a sweet girl. Got months of hell for my friend only to find out she lied. Everybody just knew he was guilty. Had death threats. Then you look at the Duke lacrosse situation. Everybody knew that they were guilty. Now, she maybe telling the truth. I'm not going to disrespect her because I don't know the truth. I'm just starting that you also don't know the truth and are just assuming if you are going to call him a rapist. One thing we all can agree on is the police department was derelict.

Mamacalled,

If the girl was your daughter and she came to you and said he did it, how would you feel? She is somebody's daughter. And I know, he is somebody's son.

I just hope football had nothing to do with the decision not to prosecute.

Nope. Difference = (.1 - .08)/.08 = .02/.08 = .25 or 25%

Right. Another way to look at it is if it takes 4 drinks of a certain strength to reach .08, it will take 5 drinks of the same strength to reach .1

If I'm not mistaken the issue was not whether or not to take this to a jury but rather to take it before a grand jury. From what little legal knowledge I have it seems crazy that this would not of gone front of a grand jury.

Florida is a weird state I think. They don't use grand juries outside of capital cases from what I hear. The state attorney decides whether to prosecute.

Here's a video of how serious Meggs was during the press conference.

Re: Jameis Winston investigated for sexual assault - update: DNA match found

JW's attorney and friends had a year to get their story straight aided by info leaked to them.
They knew exactly what they needed to include or leave out of the affidavits.

At the very least this should have went to a GJ. if it were you or I, we would have been charged a year ago.

If this girl truly knows she was raped and wants justice, she should get an attorney that has the experience and ability to handle a high profile case, and MAKE this a high profile, national case.

The less prosecutorial discretion the better in my eyes.

 

[Mamacalled]

I agree that the whole thing was handled improperly. If it was handled properly there definitely would be less doubt.
As far as having bruising, not that I am proud of some of the things in the past but I will say that there are some women that are freaks out there. Again, not saying this woman was but we don't know.

 

[Mamacalled]

Al a Bama. I would have been just like the father of the girl that accused my friend. I would want to kill him. Just as my friends mother wanted to kill her for falsely accusing her son and putting their family through hell. It is a sad story whatever happened.

On the "badness" scale, rap falls somwhere between taking money and rape, I think.

 

[russtang]

That was a sickening, despicable press conference. Meggs is a great liar.

He may not seek another term as SA but I'll bet will run for congress or some other office.

 

[TideEngineer08]

This whole thing reeks. And that press conference? Sickening.

I respect your desire to support your friend, but this is just sick.

I watched to it live and was surprised that there wasn't outrage expressed by any of the reporters. The single female reporter who tried to get answers was made fun of.
