Remember how all the pics and info about Trayvon came out?
And many wanted Zimmerman let off the hook. Yet he was charged and went to court. So whether you agree or not, its settled
But saying, we're not charging JW, because we know something you dont know, will light the world on fire
Go to court, let both lawyers have their go, and settle it. If the victim is willing to be tarnished in court, that says a lot

Well I agree, but what if there is legitimate evidence such as text messages/pictures of them together? Or her story just fell apart?
My first reaction was that Winston will be charged and this will go to court but the longer this drags out I am beginning to think this is far from settled.

If her story is, I had 2 drinks, went to an apt. With friends. Woke up in a bedroom with wet panties, and was bleeding. And the TPD said I wasnt drunk per BAC.
Not sure how that story falls apart regardless of anything else.

Ok very possible but how does she identify Winston as her rapist if it went down this way? According to the most recent statements she had no doubt about it being rape and about it being Winston.
I understand where you're coming from though but we could go back and forth on this all night. I don't think this is as clear cut as you make it out to be. We haven't heard Winston's side, Meggs has. We don't know what the affidavits say, Meggs does. We don't know if there was bruises or not, Meggs does. On and on...
But there is no way either of us can say this is settled. If this is as clear cut as you make it out to be, what do you think the hold up is? (Honest question)

I'm stumped as to how that is that a legitimate issue if there is DNA evidence from Winston in her underwear.

Not denying that they had sex (consensual or non-consensual) He was proposing a scenario as to how it could have gone down. I highly doubt that this scenario happened if she had no doubts about it being Winston. If you read her side of the story, she claims it was Winston and she was not drunk. I highly doubt she could 100% confirm Winston was the attacker if she just went to sleep and woke up like that.
I find it quite ridiculous that someone who thinks this is "settled" can't give a reason as to what is taking so long for Meggs to charge him. You would swear he knows something we don't. I believe there is a good chance Winston is charged. He believes there is no evidence that can be presented to avoid charges because of "public outrage"
Everyone is entitled to an opinion, but he has posted incorrect information multiple times. (Jansen released the height/weight when in reality this was found in the TPD police report put out by media/TMZ) It is clear as day that he has it out for Winston or FSU. Just conversation

I'm still confused by your statement so I assume you mean something other than what I'm reading.
It doesn't matter whether or not she should or should not be confused about who the rapist was. If she did not consent to sex and the DNA matches that to Winston then her ability to identify the assailant becomes irrelevant because the DNA does that more reliably that eyewitness accounts ever could.

It is. You can scroll up and read the conversation but basically he was saying there is no evidence that could be presented by Jansen/Winston that could avoid charges and I disagree with that. I gave him an example of how Winston could be cleared. She met with Meggs last week and if her story began to fall apart along with affidavits on Winston's side or any other good evidence there is a chance he will be cleared. "Public outrage" is not enough to charge someone for rape if her story falls apart or worthy evidence is presented to Meggs.
This is all hypothetical of course, I am not attacking her in any way. For all I know she may be telling the truth 100%

Let's make the assumption that the news story about DNA evidence is legitimate. Given the public scrutiny and the DNA evidence I don't think they will fail to charge him.
Even if the case becomes a "he said, she said" (it was or wasn't consensual) there is proof of sexual contact and an allegation by the woman that there was no consent.
Whether a jury would find that evidence alone good enough to convict seems like a very different issue... if they are FSU fans I doubt that would ever happen.

I have no doubts about the DNA being his. I have said that it will probably go to court and if it is still a he said/she said thing it will definitely go to court. However, with DNA confirmation and the fact that Meggs knows whether there were bruises or signs of force from that night it would be plenty enough to charge him immediatedly (last week)
Now that doesn't mean Winston is cleared but it is definitely enough to bring charges (if there were bruises) Meggs continues to push the date back saying they have to look into a few more things. Some people feel that is evidence, could be phone records/text records/emails/social media. I think if any legit evidence surfaced from that, there is a chance he could be cleared.

I'm still on the fence. What scares me is that this kinda of thing could happen to any man on this board who has ever had a one night stand, but I guess that's just a risk we take.
What's interesting is the whole date rape drug issue. If this is true it doesn't matter if they had a prior relationship or not.

Like clockwork every morning.
The case has been dropped like 10 times according to these FSU fans reliable sources.

You're an idiot. If, after a real investigation, the attorney's office decides there's not enough evidence to proceed, I won't be bothered one bit. I could care less if Jameis Winston never plays another game or if he wins the Heisman and the Natty. I would like something resembling justice to come out of this. You should, too. Or you can base your opinion of the case on a sporting event. Your choice.

I don't think anything is "settled." But geez. The case has only been at the SAO's office for not 2 weeks. I've seen lesser charges with less publicity surrounding the case take far longer. Winston isn't a flight risk. They don't have to charge him to keep him from lighting out to Venezuela. So I'm not sure what the rush is.
