this guy and the university covering for him are scum

[madaboutharry]

1. It is a disgrace how he was coddled.

[SwampG8r]

2. and that publix helped

he was being recoddled as the coverup was being put in place

[Calista241]

3. What is Publix supposed to do?

Make up shit that he stole? Increase the price of those specific crab legs to make it a higher charge? He got caught and he got the appropriate punishment. I suppose we could burn him at the stake instead.

[blueamy66]

4. I agree.

I don't know what other punishment people want for him.

6. first time offender program

12. Yup. Nt

5. Video image of the theft

7. Isn't internet anonymity grand? You can call anybody anything without any consequences.

All I know is this guy was once accused of rape, but I don't think he was ever tried, let alone convicted.

If you really want to call this guy a rapist, you can always write an open letter with your real name.

8. If colleges took rape allegations seriously, then we would have some transparency instead of what

we have now, which is admins protecting rapists at the expense of the student body. The push back is to be expected.

10. +1

I question the sincerity of the rape "investigation," but as it stands Winston has been cleared of the accusation. The OP headline is of poor form.

[seabeyond]

14. You pretty much know it was a bogus investigation and have no problem

Saying he is innocent of rape?

Doesn't work that way

[theHandpuppet]

17. Actually, I heard just this morning...

... on CNN, citing an independent investigation into the rape allegation, that Winston had been named in a similar, earlier assault against a second woman at the university. She had sought counseling at the university but did not wish to make the case public, so no one heard of it until this recent investigation. I'll see if I can find a source for this most recent information.

[theHandpuppet]

18. Here's the source...

The New York Times.

13. Isn't being a football player grand? You can be accused of rape cops tell victim

To go home, people cheer rapist and he wins an award

[theHandpuppet]

21. The victim in this case received death threats

While Winston got a trophy.

I guess the lesson here is, it's okay to assault women as long as you don't shoplift a bag of crab legs and crawfish.

[seabeyond]

22. i thought she probably was further harassed, but i did not know for sure. thanks handpuppet. and

for the link above also

[theHandpuppet]

23. You're very welcome

I find it unbelievably insulting that this entitled piece of shit should get a free pass to assault women but he's now in hot water for lifting a bag of crab legs and crawdads. I guess that shows women just how much they count, huh?

Edited to add... meant to mention, I may have heard that report this morning on ESPN rather than CNN; nevertheless, the source (NYT) was the same.

[seabeyond]

25. rape away. just women. do not steal the crab, entitlement. nt

[Calista241]

9. College

You are correct and President Obama is trying to change the way colleges report and treat sexual assault on campus.

That does not mean we can go back and re-evaluate every rumor, innuendo, and even reports of past crimes. The case against Winston made it further than the vast majority of sexual assault cases in college.

The cops fucked up in this case and ran a poor investigation. That doesn't mean Winston is guilty, mostly guilty or even innocent. The statute of limitations hasn't passed, but to call someone a rapist when they haven't been convicted or even charged is irresponsible.

[Supersedeas]

11. FSU did all they could do -- there was just nothing there

[seabeyond]

16. Bullshit

[theHandpuppet]

20. See post #17

I guess they couldn't see what they weren't looking for to begin with.

[seabeyond]

15. They worked at making sure he could not be found guilty. I think it went farther

The opposite way

And ya. As part if the public I CAN call him a likely rapist. Just like the dude that shot trey is a murderer

[Blue_Tires]

19. Forget it Jake, it's big-time college sports...

[Vashta Nerada]

24. College athletes are just like banksters.

Both can do whatever the hell they want and get away with it.
