Why the hell didn't he settle with this girl. Evenif he'sinnocent in the eye's of the law, his family, wife, and sponsors don't consider him "innocent"... with all that money. WHy didn't he buy her off. He bought off his wife with a 4million ring. WHy not this colorado girl. Just doesn't make since. You can't tell me that for 2-15 million she wouldn't have agreed never to talk about it. His wife would have never had to know (I doubt they share financial records, she doesn't seem to know WHAT the fuck Kobe does or makes).
It may sound dirty, but hey, at least there was no pregnancy. Why not buy her off.
