After all, adventurous young women would be inured to callous behavior. Why would she have filed a complaint if she wasn't date raped? She must be an fan and, by your own admission, she must have been used to this kind of behavior from the players. But she did file a complaint. Then the cops, knowing who she had made it against and knowing what the fall out would be if they followed through on it, decided to use her rep against her and shrug off the investigation.And, actually, I do have a pretty good idea of what happened: the Talahassee cops conspired to let the investigation slide. Or, to put it more exactly, they conspired to obstruct justice and the train of evidence was corrupted so throughly that no subsequent investigation could unravel the scheme. Of course, corrupt cops – and that, my friend, is what we are talking about here – are past masters of this particular dodge. There really isn't any other conclusion that anybody who knows anything about how investigations work could make.</blockquote>
