Well if the guy really did it........how could he possibly think he could get away with something like that?( unless he was seriously mental)
But the most suspicious thing to me is that they didn't file a report that day, OR report it do Disney that day.

I can see why people don't make reports immediately while on property, considering how serious their claims were taken on this board. Since it appears that most of the people on the thread have already made them out to be money-seeking liars, I have little doubt the Disney staff wouldn't do the same. Innocent until proven guilty does not mean that you immediately assume that the purported victim is an attention seeking, money seeking liar.

Innocent until proven guilty - enough said.

That's not so unusual. Rape victims delay reporting rapes all the time but it doesn't mean it didn't happen. Plus the little girl was embarassed so she didn't say anything, which is quite normal. The mother may have just blown it off because she didn't care until she found out it happened to her child.

Not in the way the media portrays it.
I’m reminded of the current Kobe Bryant case. The media has no problem protecting the identity of the alleged “victims”, yet they’ll plaster the accused person’s face wherever possible, thus scarring that person’s career for life (and any future job opportunities, regardless of whether they are found guilty or not.
I can’t speak for the “victims” in the Tiger case, but once again, I highly doubt this incident occurred. It could be a misunderstanding involving false memories and exaggerations or some other matter altogether. I do find it interesting that the father - whom may not have been present at the time of the alleged incident – reported this “crime” to the authorities. Yet another means for the details to get muddled and/or embroidered.

The Kobe case seems to be a particularly bad example of the ill you cite. Other than the loss of a couple of endorsement deals (which arguably he might have lost from the admitted affair) Kobe is still playing ball and making his multi-million dollar salary. In contrast, the alleged victim has already had over a 100 death threats, at least 3 of which have been arrested. Would a person really go through that merely for the chance of a payoff several years down the road? That doesn't seem particularly plausible to me.

Which is exactly why the mother’s defendant wrote a letter to the judge to “speed this process up” (not an exact quote). It’s a perfectly viable example. It's too late to withdraw now, regardless of whether she forsaw the circumstances she placed herself in or not.

So your theory of the Kobe case is that a young lady from a financially secure family, at least one of whose parents is a lawyer, couldn't foresee that there would a tremendous downside (including death threats) and the loss of pretty much all privacy so she decided to make up a rape charge (luckily for her Kobe agreed to sleep with her) in the hope that after a criminal conviction, she'd then be able to bring a civil suit two to two and half years from then where she'd get a million dollar settlement. Got it.
