YoloinOhio Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Probably no charges, according to legal experts. Would be very odd to delay the charges so long and apparently out of character for this guy (Meggs) in particular to grandstand with a presser if there were charges.

LB3 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 (edited) Reports look pretty damning for the girl. She apparently wasn't drunk as she had stated and there were two different male dna samples found that night. This will probably stick with him for years either way.

Dorkington Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Drunk or not, fighting off someone(s) who are having sex with you, is rape. Two DNA samples means nothing, it could just be two rapists. The real deal breaker is physical evidence in herself... is there any evidence that she fought back? If not, they probably won't charge. That doesn't mean Winston didn't rape her, it just means that there isn't clear evidence of it. If a woman says "no" just once, and doesn't say anything else, it's still rape. If she's drunk, and can't make clear decisions, it's rape. Most rapists get away with it, because it's very hard to actually make a clear case, and that's even if the victim comes forward.

That is a very real and very sad truth. It's also important to remember, especially in celebrity cases like this, that although there was an accusation it doesn't mean that Winston did rape her. Edit. Celebrity cases being more likely than others to have ulterior motives involved like money etc. Edited December 5, 2013 by KikoSeeBallKikoGetBall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LB3 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 (edited) Also important to remember that nobody knew who Jameis Winston was 12 months ago... Nationally maybe. But locally, he was a starter on their baseball team, was the top QB on the first Elite 11 season shown on ESPN and was the top QB in the nation his senior year.

Ramius Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Nationally maybe. But locally, he was a starter on their baseball team, was the top QB on the first Elite 11 season shown on ESPN and was the top QB in the nation his senior year. Jameis was a highly touted recruit. However, at the time of the alleged incident, he had yet to throw a pass or a pitch for a FSU team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
