My verdict based on the facts of the case s that Bryant should have been prosecuted because the prosecution had a lot of evidence on him. The DNA evidence alone was enough to convict him. Society played a major role in this case because the victim was treated unfairly throughout this whole process. Bryant was famous, and she was sent death threats and forced to move to five different states just to try and get away from the publicity. Every time she moved people found her and sent the media in her direction. After 14 months of the harassment it was time to take the case to trial, and she backed out because she couldn’t handle the stress anymore. It is much easier to blame the victim than to think that the basketball star did anything wrong. After 14 months of torture the victim never got any justice because all of the charges were dropped on Bryant, and he was free to go as if nothing happened. If people were more educated on rape maybe the public and the media wouldn’t have harassed the victim and she would have gotten some
