Alright, so he encouraged her to not press charges when Winston had yet to take a snap at FSU, but, all of a sudden, this case re-appears when Winston looks like he's a sure-fire #1 pick in the 2015 draft?

Well when you really delve deeper into whats been going on, its more than just the case re-appearing. If the case would of been handled properly by the T.P.D, I doubt it would of "disappeared" or been closed like it was for the past months.
And im not for or against Winston in this situation. Hes an incredible player. Heisman front runner and best QB in college football.
But the way the T.P.D handled it was extremely unprofessional and flat out wrong. At this point in this case, I have a bigger problem with the T.P.D than I do with Winston, due to the fact we have no idea if he did or didnt do this. But the way the T.P.D handled it makes it look worse than it already is.

I don't understand what point this makes.
Whether he's guilty or not, being slotted as the starting QB this year and one of the most hyped QB recruits in the country seems enough to believe the allegations are at least possible.
Also, it seems that all the added publicity around him may well be exactly the reason this case came back to light due to reporters digging around but that's hardly inexplicable?

The real problem is with the investigators. People are tired of sports figures being treated differently. And it goes both ways
Penn St - covered up
Duke - overkill
Winston - covered up?
These cases need to just wind their way through the legal system

Dude read the articles. If someone you know is raped and a detective "encourages" them not to press charges are you going to oblige him? Or tell him to shut the frick up and do his job? From January to April they repeatedly asked if he had collected DNA evidence from the suspect and had he interviewed the roommate which she claims witnessed the rape. The whole time the detective says no because, "he doesn't want to tip off the suspect". But he had already told the suspect's attorney in February that the case was closed.
Are you under the impression that she decided not to press charges at some point?
