38 years ago? Jeeez

[White Hammer]

Shockingly, Scott, now 64, admits that he had sexual contact with the girl but says he thought she was 18.
So he was at a high school, and thought the 15 yr old girl was really 18? I guess I can believe it, but lets not forget 18 is basically the maximum age he could reasonably believe her to be. He was 26 at the time.

He then ‘forcefully grabbed Hayley by the arm and pulled her inside the room’ leaving her ‘frightened and confused.’
Scott then ‘began kissing her on the mouth as she repeatedly asked “what are you doing?”
‘Then, despite her clear protests, Scott pushed Hayley to her knees, and, against her will, pulled off her top. Scott the pulled down his shorts, exposed his erect *****, and tried to force Hayley to perform oral sex on him.'
Hayley was ‘terrified’ and ‘pleaded for Scott to stop and tried to turn her head away from his erect *****,' the complaint claims.
Eventually, the complaint says, Scott relented and told his victim to get up off the floor and get dressed then he unlocked the door so she could leave.
Oh, so we're not just talking about statutory-rape, but attempted non-consensual rape-rape. LOL why the fk did he admit it happened? What a loser. It hardly makes it better if she was 18. And people were giving Giddey a hard time...

He eventually asked a teammate, who also lived in Encino, if he could take Hayley home but the player - apparently recognizing the inappropriate nature of driving alone with a strange teen, responded: ‘F**k, no. I’m not putting that girl in my car.’
He doesn't even have the decency to drive her home after kidnapping her and stranding her at the school.
This is just one more glimpse at the dark underbelly of Laker Nation. These are the types of people LakerLegend32 worships while she complains about Trump everyday.

[90sgoat]

Who hasn't been accused of that honestly?

[fourkicks44]

The funniest thing about this is insidehoops censors *****. It is a legitimate medical term for a male's *****.

[gengiskhan]

Not surprise!

Lakers are known serial Rapists looks like.

One got the God's wrath on January, 2020.

hopefully this one too.

He didn't even penetrate her. He didn't even get head.

He sexually assaulted her, for sure. But he didn't rape her.

Needs to be said.

[ImKobe]

Why would he drop the girl off after trying to assault her? That's probably the last thing u wanna do unless u want to ruin your career.. Scott had a lot to lose at the time.

Anyways this sucks because they waited 38 years before taking action. Who knows how many people Scott assaulted? Shit like this was common in the 80s & 90s with HS girls dating guys way older than them but it doesn't excuse what Scott did at all. The girl could've been 18+ as well, it's still illegal to do what he did. I believe the victim because they're only asking for 25K and a jury trial. They probably could've gotten a huge settlement out of Scott if they kept their mouth shut.

[ILLsmak]

Haha, don't people realize this is real life?

Regardless of the why, if those two people interacted IN THE JANITOR'S CLOSET, that's wild.

Any time a dude says "She can stay," it's time to plan your escape route.

-Smak

[Baller234]

Eh anything is possible but I'm always skeptical in these cases. Statutory rape I can understand but actual rape?

Why would a successful NBA star in his mid-20's commit such a horrific act and rape some random underage teenager when no doubt he could have had any girl he wanted. And just her? This guy is low level violent creep but never victimized anyone else?

And why wait all this time? You're saying this man did the unthinkable to you and were perfectly fine staying quiet as he continued to flourish in the public eye? Why? You waited 38 years to reveal this? Just extremely odd.

Like I said anything is possible but I would really hope people don't rush to judgement here. Innocent until proven guilty. If she settles for a single dime you know it's bullshit.

[tpols]

This one actually seems legit, not just money grab. Man those 80s Lakers were sex fiends and this is sick. I think people us3d to get away with a lot more back in the day. Rockstars were doing this stuff in their dressing rooms before and after shows.

[gengiskhan]

same thing guys.

colorado hotel room or Janitor's closet.

hope he receives eternal justice like January, 2020.

[Nowoco]

38 years ago? Jeeez

Exactly. Let bygones be bygones.

[tpols]

God's gonna have a whole lot on his plate when he judges you for sure. :lol

[gengiskhan]

God's gonna have a whole lot on his plate when he judges you for sure. :lol

Just goes to show how far you'll go to defend rapists and sexual assualters. :lol

imagine if that innocent was your mother, wife, sister or daughter is victim.

[ImKobe]

same thing guys.

colorado hotel room or Janitor's closet.

Seek mental help.

[gengiskhan]

Seek mental help.

another rapist and sexual assaulter defender.

IH need to ban these closet rapist defender.

[tpols]

It sounds like you're projecting buddy. Seek help.

God's watching.

[ImKobe]

another rapist and sexual assaulter defender.

IH need to ban these closet rapist defender.

Yeah I definitely believe the "victim" who lied about being held against her will and who told her friends she'd use the settlement money to buy fake tits, a koala bear and a recording studio.

[gengiskhan]

keep defending rapist because you might have something hidden subconciously that you can act out one day.

rapist do not apologize to their wife and give them diamond ring to make up.

rapist is a rapist. Victim is a victim. now matter of rapist is a multimillionaire celebrity or victim has fake tits. No means No.

and God punishment was just. took his daughter on January 2020 to pain his soul.

you believe "victim" or not doesnt count. Justice has been served. Your kind still refuse to accept it.

[tpols]

I just realized the irony that this dude named himself after one of the biggest marauding, murdering, pillaging, and raping individuals of all time.

Gengis khan.

Imagine having that lack of self awareness. This dude is a damn fool. :oldlol:

Yeah, because men who get caught cheating do not apologize or buy their wives expensive gifts to try to make up for it?

[gengiskhan]

Yeah, because men who get caught cheating do not apologize or buy their wives expensive gifts to try to make up for it?

"men who got caught cheeting" do not get their daughter blown to smithereens as a punishment from almighty. Only rapist do.

only rapist get eternal justice.

[ImKobe]

"men who got caught cheeting" do not get their daughter blown to smithereens as a punishment from almighty. Only rapist do.

only rapist get eternal justice.

So your god killed 9 people because Kobe "raped" someone? That makes sense.

Maybe it's time you took your pills and went back to your therapist. It's not too late for you brother.

[gengiskhan]

So your god killed 9 people because Kobe "raped" someone? That makes sense.

God said, do not associate with evil doers, rapists etc etc just because they are rich and you are getting free ride.

God said, associate with good humans even if they are poor and common. those 9 people paid the price by associating themselves with rapist.

a rapist can buy judge and best lawyer on earth and get away.

but same rapist cannot buy off Almighty's wrath. and we all saw it. when you see it. accept it. A sign of a true believer.

Only hypocrites and disbeliever live in denial.

Bill Cosby could've had any woman he wanted too, he brought them home and could've likely had consensual sex with a lot of them, but he decided to drug them and rape their unconscious bodies. People always confuse rape as being simply about having sex, a lot of it is about a power and control dynamic.

Your 2nd point is straight ignorance. It's common knowledge it can take victims years, even decades to speak out against their accusers. So while I won't dispute 38 years is an extremely long time, waiting a long time to speak out is a very common occurrence in situations like these.

I agree we should hold off judgement, no matter how vile the accusations are, until it goes to trial. He should be presumed innocent until proven guilty, and unfortunately, too many woman have lied about this in the past that it justifiably causes a lot of skepticism when celebrities are accused of these kinds of things.

Lol it's not a money grab? She's filing a lawsuit. This is a civil case which means the plaintiff is seeking money damages.

If this man did the unthinkable and forcibly raped you against your will, why not report the crime so he could face criminal charges?

If she was that young she mightve been scared. That wasn't a metoo era back then bro.

I get your point that there's been tons of women bearing false witness to get a bag, idk if this is or isn't the case. But the specifics are kind of disturbing and he admitted to hooking up with her he knew she was a high school student.

Scared of what? I never know what this means. Why wouldn't she want him punished for his crime?

She had 38 years to come to grips with it.

This sounds like something feminists and bad faith actors manipulated people into repeating. You hear something said enough times and before long you just accept it blindly without bothering to give it any thought. How does this make any sense at all?

Mind you we're talking about actual rape, not statutory rape or sexual assault in the broader sense. We're talking about a seriously inhumane and violent act here. There's no "shame" in being raped if you're a woman. The only thing I could imagine that would prevent someone from speaking out is fear of violent retaliation. Beyond that there's really no excuse and people sound like idiots when they suggest such things. You have a moral obligation to both yourself and society to see that man punished.

The fact that she's seeking financial restitution pretty much says it all. Imagine being violently raped against your will and not wanting that person to spend a single day in jail so long as he's willing to write you a check. I'm sorry that's just really, REALLY odd to me.

You can play knight in shining armor all you want, the facts are really fishy here.

Again, you are completely clueless on the subject, stunningly so :lol There are numerous examples of people not reporting sexual assault or abuse for years or even decades after they occurred; the Catholic Church, Michael Jackson, Jerry Sandusky, Larry Nassar, R. Kelly, Bill Cosby, Harvey Weinstein, Jeffrey Epstein, Danny Masterson, Diddy.

You frankly are just ignorant on the subject, ignoring all these cases I mentioned involving hundreds of victims in addition to the countless others that have taken place, misguidedly trying to paint anyone who understands this pretty common knowledge about these incidents as a feminist or knight in shining armor.

So tell me this if you're so smart, what good reason did this woman have to keep her mouth shut?

Assume you were this girl's father. A man just violated your baby girl in the most unthinkable way imaginable. He's not a crime lord or a powerful person in government. He's an expendable basketball player.

Are you telling me as this girl's father you do not want to see this man punished??? Why, so he could harm more girls???

Please if you can provide me a single good reason why her and her family should remain silent on this, I will concede ground.

I have no idea, thankfully, I've never been through this experience. From my understanding a lot of the time it's embarrassment and shame, other times it's because the person is in a position of power.

I couldn't tell you why this woman chose not to speak up after all these years, I'm not even saying this incident factually occurred, we'll probably never know. But your claim that this is uncommon in sexual assault or abuse cases is just blatantly wrong, in fact it's the common trend amongst them.

He knows her family just as much as you know whether or not she made the entire thing up.

Everything is pure speculation at the moment. So I don’t see why you are trying to enforce that some things will be speculated on and some things won’t.

[Baller234]

What do you mean you have no idea? You brought up all those examples.

Surely there must be a perfectly logical reason for this woman and her family to keep their mouth shut. You said it was a "very common thing".

So I ask again, please give me a good reason. Tell me why you shouldn't alert the authorities.

Answer as if you are the girl's father.

The fact that you even have to ask these questions means you don't understand the topic at all. Most cases like this aren't reported at all.

Whether it's shame, fear of losing the case and possible retribution, or something else. It happens all the time.

You think the first thing a woman in a horrifying and often embarrassing situation like this (again, like others have said, we don't know if this particular one is true or not) is doing is going straight to her father? No, that's not usually how it works either.

You talking about "logic". Sometimes with things like this logic isn't really at the forefront. It's a very emotional thing.

I'm sorry but you sound like a total f*cking idiot simp. This rubbish has been jammed into your brain from woke feminists and bad faith grifters and you just repeat it without giving it an ounce of thought.

"It could have been shame or something else..." what something else??? I keep asking you guys to explain this to me but no one can. No one here can give me a logical reason for her staying quiet. Now you're suggesting that she wouldn't even tell her loved ones? Not even her mother and father? Why??? And even if by some miracle she didn't tell her parents, are you telling me they didn't notice a change in her behavior?? I mean you're claiming she was so emotionally traumatized, but her poker face is just that good and no one could tell?

Also what is so "embarrassing" about a 15 year old girl being attacked and raped by a grown man? Is she worried about preserving her street cred? So much so she can't even tell her immediate family??? Like I said fear of retaliation is the only thing I can think of, but wtf is BYRON SCOTT going to do once he's outed???

If I were this girl's father I couldn't imagine staying silent on this. I would want this scumbag animal buried under the jail and I would do everything in my power to make it happen. Actually I would probably want to kill him myself.

PLEASE prove me wrong and give me one good reason why you as a father wouldn't want to alert the authorities. An actual reason. Not vague "it could be this or it could be that".

Why are you going so hard for Byron Scott when his defense in this case is "I thought she was 18" instead of denying the allegation? So he admits he had sexual contact with a 15 y.o while being 26 :biggums: .


Shockingly, Scott, now 64, admits that he had sexual contact with the girl but says he thought she was 18.

Scott’s attorney, Linda Bauermeister, told Daily Mail: ‘Our client is devastated by this complaint, a basketball event that took place in 1987.

‘Our client believed the plaintiff to be over 18 and had no idea she would claim otherwise until 35 years later.

Hey genius, she's accusing him of violent and forcible rape.

Him admitting he had relations with her would mean he's guilty of statutory rape, not actual rape. Both are crimes but there is a clear and very important distinction there. One is way worse than the other.

So miss me with your bullshit. If he committed a crime then he deserves what's coming for him, but it still has to be factual.

A minor can't consent to having sex. That is a crime. You're defending a guy who at age 26 went to a high school and tried to have sex with a random girl he met there without knowing her age (allegedly, he probably knew she was a minor let's be real).

And even if she was of age at the time, you can't lure someone into a closet and just pull out your ***** and force them on their knees. That's sexual assault. I'm not sure what Scott or his lawyers are thinking.

Do you not understand English? I literally said that in the post you quoted.

Also where did I defend him?? I would love for you to show me. All I said was I find it improbable that he forcibly and violently raped her. I'm perfectly willing to believe he got messy with an underage girl but that would make him a different category of scumbag.

Not defending the man at all. I said quite clearly that I would want to kill the man himself if I were the girl's father.

Yes 3tard we all know you're very concerned when it comes to the well being of innocent young women. I suppose that is why you think it is a great idea for a woman to share a prison cell with a man. :oldlol:

Ok now I understand your point a bit better.

Seemed like you were trying to downplay his actions by questioning the legitimacy of the victim's claims. What he did was very illegal. You can argue whether it was violent or not but her claims definitely make it seem like he tried forcing her to do sexual acts and it wasn't until he pulled out his ***** and forced her on her knees that he stopped the assault. If you already forced yourself on a girl and kissed her and took off her top without her consent you've broken multiple laws, and that's before we get to the underage part. He held her against her will and forced her to do sexual acts. At least he didn't go all the way through with it but the damage is already done at that point.

what kind of dirtbag gets messy with an 18-year old after shuttling her away to a private room at a high school event (that your wife is attending as well).. he must do this type of thing all the time

[ImKobe]

I guess it's going to be impossible to tell unless Scott admits to it or the accuser messes up her testimony somehow.

[Baller234]

I guess it's going to be impossible to tell unless Scott admits to it or the accuser messes up her testimony somehow.

Lol testimony? Like most civil cases this is probably going to be settled out of court. That was probably her goal to begin with. I can almost guarantee you this never sees a court room. I would be highly shocked.

Any sane or rational person should be extremely skeptical considering her behavior and her refusal to come out with this sooner.

Any sane or rational person should be extremely skeptical considering her behavior and her refusal to come out with this sooner.Why do you always immediately assume the worst in people? She's barely asking for anything:


The lawsuit demands a jury trial and $25,000 for damages, payment of attorney fees, and loss of wages to be paid by Scott and the high school.

And the accusation seems very grounded as well. NBA players have groupies throwing ass at them all the time, it's not farfetched to think Byron Scott had some disconnect with reality and misread a situation enough to think taking off her top and getting her on her knees was okay. He probably did that all the time.

what kind of dirtbag gets messy with an 18-year old after shuttling her away to a private room at a high school event (that your wife is attending as well).. he must do this type of thing all the time

Uh, if she were 18 we wouldn't be having this discussion.

Not sure what's so reprehensible about a 26 year old athlete getting with an 18 year old female. Again I don't think he seriously thought she was 18 but if that were the case then this would be a non issue.

Cheating on your wife is not some horrific irredeemable crime. Willing to bet most NBA players cheat on their wives.

Why do you always immediately assume the worst in people? She's barely asking for anything:



And the accusation seems very grounded as well.

:crazysam:

This guy imagining things in vivid detail… :roll:

$25k is a lot of money if you're down and desperate. Plus who knows what constitutes "loss of wages".

If Scott has groupies throwing themselves at him, then it would make little sense for him to risk it all on some random underage girl he just met. She's claiming he forcefully grabbed her, ignored her clear and obvious protests and then forced her on her knees physically against her will.

That wouldn't just be a 'disconnect', it would mean Scott is the lowest possible human scum there is and deserves the harshest punishment imaginable.

It isn't the cheating that is the big deal.. It's doing it while attending an event with your wife and sneaking off with a stranger - it means he does it all the time and is basically an animal with zero restraint.. A dirtbag...
