You guys have got to be kidding me. Just because she withdrew the complaint doesn't mean it didn't happen. None of us know if she was, or wasn't raped. And I agree that too often people get accused of rape and are prematurely found guilty, without getting a chance to defend themselves. But just because you read Treon's Lawyers comments (whose job is supposed to defend his client) doesn't really mean much.
He definitely should have been suspended if it they didn't know whether he did it or not. I mean look at what has been going on lately, with the Winston case picking back up, the whole NFL abusing women stuff. This is college, and If any other student was accused of rape, he/she would definitely be suspended, except you wouldn't have the athletic department trying to help him/her.
Maybe some of you need to stop rushing to conclusion that he is or isn't guilty, and that she is just a "cleat chaser" who deserves to be in prison.
You moron, she's the one who withdrew her statement after the lawyer started digging around. Use common sense. What do you think that means? It means it was bull****. She made a false rape accusation, and the reason that's so dangerous is because of people like you--who ignore the facts of the case and still like to pretend that he might be a rapist. She should go to prison.
No, I'm not the moron. You are definitely the moron if you think just because someone withdrew the complaint it automatically means she's lying and deserves to go to prison. If it turns out they never even had *** than sure she should go to jail for maybe like 30 days...but not ****ing prison. Like I said, just because you withdraw a complaint doesn't mean she should go to prison. Maybe it means she knows she would never win (because she can't neccessarily prove it was rape NOT because it didn't actually happen), and didn't want to have to go through trial being questioned by a lawyer and having everyone question your character and make you relive the trauma you went through.
And I never said I thought he did or didn't do it. All I'm saying is a lot of you guys went from calling Treon a piece of **** (Before he got the chance to defend himself) to calling this girl a **** and deserving to be in prison. If she just randomly goes around accusing a guy of rape, she deserves to go to Jail, but if they actually ended up having ***, who's to say she's just making everything up, and didn't at one point try to leave? Basically people saying things like the guy above me, ****es me off.
