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" like it did for the past months.


Possibly.

However, with talks of Heisman and #1 pick start surfacing, it becomes highly questionable on why it was off the radar for 10 months, only to reappear at this moment in time.

She should have persued it from the outset and not let some shithead detective dictate her choices.

Didn't the family's statement say they were going to let it go until someone leaked it to the press?

Well yea I obviously agree with that. But, if youre in a situation where you might seek legal advice or pursue legal action, and then a Detective of the Law tells warns you about doing it and tells you it would end badly for you, it would make me re-think it. Especially if i was a 20 year old female of however old she is. Doesnt mean I would let the warning decide what I was going to do. But i would re-think what I would do. Then again, I would have a lawyer with me at all times, especially when i am with police or other lawyers, immediately after this happened.

And didnt it just re-surface because a journalist from Tampa received a tip and a case # and he did his job and researched it and found out that Winston was the accused, then he reported it?

she called the police right after it happened and had a rape kit done. that to me is very strong evidence that this woman was assaulted/raped. maybe it wasn't Jameis, but it seems highly probable that somebody hurt her, because no woman in their right mind would put themselves through that unless they were harmed.

the TPD dropped the ball after that. it seems like they didn't do their due diligence in investigating the claim. if they had done the investigation like they should have, Jameis could have potentially already cleared his name. Or, he could be sitting in jail right now.
