Derrick Rose is in court battling a woman who claims he raped her and, according to TMZ, the NBA All-Star is trying to use Tupac‘s 1993 sexual assault case to help his cause.
Rose is asking the judge in his case to force the woman accusing him of the crime to reveal her identity because he says it is unfair for her to bash him in the media while hiding behind an anonymous name.
Tupac was sentenced to serve up to four-and-a-half years in prison in 1995 for allegedly forcing a woman to have oral sex with him and his friends. In a civil lawsuit that followed, the woman was ordered to reveal her identity.
The New York Knicks player says that his case is almost identical to that of the West Coast legend’s and is asking for a judge to demand the woman reveals her identity. The judge is cautious as Rose’s legal team has seemingly attempted to victim shame the woman.
Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant and his legal team were accused of victim shaming in 2003 when they successfully prevented a woman claiming he raped her from veiling her identity.
Rose’s trial is scheduled to start October 4.
This c unt should have to show herself
Watch it be your girlfriend and you’ll be like, “Damn babe we were still together at that time.” lol
………….*crickets*
I thought you legally got the right to face your accuser regardless of the crime? This is true even in cases of child abuse. I don’t see why it shouldn’t be in this case. If you’re going to take a case to court, you have to be ready to be in the open. I don’t know much about this case or how Derrick Rose and his lawyers have tried to victim shame her, but if they have then shame on them.
The title of this article had me expecting something a lot worse than him just wanting to face his accuser.
Probably easier to shame a girl while you’re raping her. And when she asks to stop since it’s starting to hurt, you smack her and start laughing. Millionaires have the right to do that.
I can almost bet she’s white. Because when you’re rich and black, you don’t want a black girl anymore lol.
More racism. Congrats.
You was going through your stress while your enemies laughed
