Seems that if it's gonna settle out, maximum leverage for the accuser is about right now.
There may be a $$ grab settling out, but the DA still is the only ones that can dismiss or drop suit regardless...at least that is my legal acumen...yes I know limited is overstatement to say the least.
My ? is that in her comments, she "stated paraphrased here" that I was shocked, had a phone in one hand and a drink in the other. I didn't know what to do, I was shocked....a shocked person, one who is a female especially might throw the drink on a person if they were inappropriately touched/molested/raped/etc...or is that just too obvious?
