Never said that it does. But it does make the claimant look a little "ridiculous". Look, I realize that women are raped all the time. I get it, I really do. However, the best way to pursue a case is IMMEDIATELY after it happens. A rape kit. Formal charges.

Waiting for 5 years almost makes it look like "Hey! I know that guy! Wait...he and I got it on in College....now he is in the NFL....Hmmmm.....Payday? Maybe?"

Not saying that is the case - but a Defense Attorney might have a field day with that. Especially if she chose NOT prosecute 5 years ago.

According to a release from the Atlanta police department, a woman told their investigators that she went to a party with Gotsis on March 9, 2013 after meeting him through a mutual friend. At that time Gotsis was playing for Georgia Tech in Atlanta.

She says that he took her home after the party and raped her, according to the release.

Atlanta police say that the woman reported the alleged rape February 1, 2018.

A warrant for Gotsis' arrest was issued on March 7, 2018 and he turned himself in on the same day, according to the release.

Incorrect . You don't need to present proof to make an accusation.

An incident report alleging rape was filed. The accused turned himself in to signify cooperation then was released on bail.
Accusation and denial, that is all there is at this point.

Look here to see the incident report. Notice no injury is alleged, only penetration.

Well...duh. Nobody is alleging he beat the shit out of her and THEN raped her. Just that he raped her.

Sad if true... would suck if this is a #metoo inspired thing. Wonder what evidence exists?

Uh. He turned himself in after they issued a warrant for his arrest. They issue those for for 5 year old allegations without evidence ya think?

5 years is a long time to wait to decide you've been raped and that you now need to go after a pro athlete.

Something smells fishy

Bet she wishes Triplette was there to stop his forward progress.

These things tie up forever in legal system. Could now just have been processed for it. Lawyers can delay these things for years in hopes the victim gets tired of it hanging over their heads and also to make any witnesses forget details. The justice system is completely ****ed.

You don't get arrested for some random woman claiming she was raped 5 years ago unless she's got a mound of evidence to throw out for a warrant.

This isn't Louis CK bullshit. This is real rape. It's a serious charge.

"Five years ago?"

It's ****ing rape, and he was arrested. It could have been FIFTY years ago. Evidence is evidence.

He'll get his day in court. He might not be guilty. But it's not a bunch of feminism crap. This shit would have been treated the same way decades ago.

What "real" evidence exist 5 years later? Please do tell.

The article doesn’t provide much info. I bet there’s more to it. They are just trying to get the story out there but they get shit wrong all the time. She could have tried to file charges back then but the cops didn’t do anything until she got evidence back. Dna and blood test take a long time, over a year depending on the city. They could have just waited to charge him until they had the evidence.

Oh and yea they aren’t arresting someone with out substantial evidence on something like this.

**Rain Man** · 03-12-2018, 07:45 PM

There's no way Gotsis will be convicted. He can point at the Broncos' run defense against the Chiefs as clear proof that he can't wrap someone up and bring them down.
