In essence, you point out that the girl's story was inconsistent (which, by the way, means absolutely nothing when we've established a sexual encounter did occur). If we were to build a theory where the victim was potentially rufie'd by these guys, then it might add up why she was unclear or inconsistent. The key piece of evidence in proving or disproving this theory, would be the security footage from the bar, which was never recovered.
Also, you mention that she was "uncooperative" at times with TPD. Perhaps that's because she felt threatened or on trial or mishandled by TPD. That's exactly why a victim advocate is needed, in order to help a victim, in a very low, very difficult emotional moment, navigate the stressful world of law enforcement. And the article goes so far as to speak with another accuser/victim, one with a father involved in law enforcement in another jurisdiction, who reports a similar pattern of very inappropriate handling by TPD during the investigation. If TPD is handling the accusers as poorly as described in the article, (not to mention the social firestorm that would erupt around something like this at FSU) it shouldn't be surprising when the accuser/victim is a bit reticent to answer TPD's every call.
So yeah -- I do appreciate you talking about the article in good faith. It's just hard not to get ... well ... REALLY upset when you look at something like this and see a major failure of the justice system. And if you came away from it feeling like Jameis is a rapist, well ... the fact is, he sure wasn't a gentleman to this girl. EVEN IF it was 100% consensual, if your daughter brought home a guy who you knew took a heavily intoxicated girl home from a bar so he could fuck her while his bros watched out the door, filming parts of it, then unceremoniously sent her on her way, surely you'd feel something about your own daughter going on a date with that guy? Anyway... ___________
