I agree. He's innocent.

If a girl accuses me of rape, and I didn't do it, you can bet your arse I'm testifying.

Not if your lawyer tells you not to.

If I didn't do it, my lawyer isn't using squirrelly tactics to get me off.

And chances are you'll get destroyed on the stand.

How does an intelligent innocent person get destroyed on the stand? Just tell straight truth. Not hard.
Jameis' lawyer doesn't trust him to keep a lie on the stand. Because that's all he's got. A lie.

You're right. It's cake.

And what's to differentiate your "straight truth" from hers?
Have you seen some of the policies regarding "date rape" being implemented by colleges lately? Putting the burden of evidence on the accused; basically a guilty until proven innocent point of view.
No fricking way you're getting me to testify at a meaningless hearing held be a school council. Too much risk, innocent or not.

I've been to university court before. I won for what it's worth. Called a lawyer friend and ran through what I had, and he said go for it. For the record, I was even a bit guilty. Nothing like rape though.
ETA: I never had to go to court though. The prosecutor through it out after meeting with me.

Dude, read up on what they can do to an innocent person. I 100% think that if I'm ever in a position where I'm innocent, that I'm smart and clever enough to convey that to absolute perfection. But it's not true, and I'm probably not.
It's why so many innocent people talk to cops without asking for lawyers...then incriminate themselves even though they are completely innocent. It's not as simple as "hey I'm innocent and I'll get the truth out there!!" These people are paid TONS of money to make you look and feel like a retard. And if there is any chance of that, and my lawyer tells me to stfu...that's what I'm gonna do.

Read about it, it's amazing actually.

I will read any article you link for me. That's bullshite that we have a system where prosecutors will knowingly get innocent people sentences.

You're looking at it all wrong, bro.
The moment you open your mouth, so many variables come into play. The sound of your voice, inflections, visceral emotions of jurors, how you move in your chair, eye contact, EVERYTHING.
If you open your mouth, chances are a juror is going to say, "I don't trust him one bit. He raped that poor girl."
Rape is one of those crimes where, even if you didn't do it, the fact you're accused makes people not trust you. The same thing goes for child molesters.

Pssshhhhh. That's nothing. There was a prosecutor in New Orleans who knowingly excluded DNA evidence that exonerated a defendant. Dude was put on death row. I think he was executed.

I agree, but it's their job.
What's worse is cops, even cops that are wonderful people, aren't there to help you. You get falsely accused of rape, or shoot and kill an armed intruder in your house, and the cops who arrive will do everything in their power to get you to start singing like a bird. And god dammit, absolutely none of it will be to "help" you. In fact, 90% of it will be to frick you.
If you're in that situation, never say anything. Like, pretend that you're mute.

Its probably good he did "through" it out because I don't think you are as intelligent as you think you are!

Pretty sure Jameis is NOT falsely accused of rape
If he is willing to push an authority figure (ref) on National TV...pretty sure he would push a co-ed to go too far, against her will, in a bathroom.
