I think he did it, and I see Lebron James in a similar (or worse) situation in about five years.
I read one report that built Bryant up on the basis that he reads frequently, spends a lot of time at home and speaks fluent Italian.
So what? All that automatically excludes him from being a rapist?
Like someone else mentioned, he's had everything handed over to him on a silver platter since he was what? 17? 18? He can get anything he wants, and he's got to have such an ego, that one rejection could set him off.
I'm also speculating, lying and ranting.
