Patrick Kane: [Updated] D.A. Decides Not to Prosecute; NHL Determines Claims "Unfounded"


Recommended Posts

... And the tennis game continues. This one seems to be more compelling than Serena's quest for a calendar year slam. Pretty sure the ball is back in Attorney E's court.

 

And just like that, presser tonight at 8:45. May the show continue!

Good lord almighty...

 

So Eoannou is withdrawing from the case because he is not confident in the story about how he received the evidence bag...says he doesn't know what happened but lacks confidence either way. However, he also says it was a real evidence bag used in this case, so while the story may be fabricated, the bag is not. He repeatedly said the accuser is not involved in the evidence bag and continues to believe her, but no longer feels comfortable being involved in the case.

 

Just when you thought this whole thing couldn't get any weirder.

Good Lord.

 

Well, this squares with one of the possibilities previously identified: That this was a ruse, a hoax.

 

FFS, though, why wouldn't Eoannou do some additional due diligence before holding hs press conference?

 

Furthermore, I don't know that it's ethical for him to be casting shade on his own client's interests like this. Yes, he says he still believes her, but he's also saying a close family member of the accuser may have tried to fabricate evidence (of some kind). Not good for his client.

He still seems to believe the bag is legit, so I continue to be more befuddled by the passing day.

Christ the reporters in this town suck.

 

I just read a tweet from one stating that basically this amounts to nothing and the case is no different than it was yesterday before the initial press conference.

 

LOL

Didn't watch the presser, but maybe he meant to say the bag is the exact kind of bag (and tape) used by ECMC to seal rape kits, therefore making it legit, but is not commenting on whether it's THE bag used to the seal THE evidence from THIS case.

All of the hyperbole and hypothesizing at the beginning doesn't even begin to compare in insanity level to the actual events that are transpiring now. Unreal. Bewildering. I'm with you.

It's because the aliens are finally on their way. Finally.

Certainly possible. I'd like to think an attorney would be very careful with his exact phrasing in a situation like this, but him botching his own resignation might actually be the least surprising thing about the last few days. 

 

This whole thing is such a mess I don't know how anyone could hope to get an impartial jury even if the grand jury decides to indict.

Well, let's organize the events of the past week or so:

 

Grand Jury is delayed for unknown reasons.

A leak says Kane's DNA not found in vital/critical areas of accuser - although other males' DNA was.

Allegation that the evidence bag (but not the evidence) was found at accuser's mother's home.

Kane's lawyer confirms above stated leak (re: DNA); accuser's lawyer does not dispute it.

Accuser's lawyer holds press conference to declare he has quit the case because he is uncomfortable with information coming from the accuser's side.

 

I can see nothing that works against Kane here.

As best I can tell: The bag itself was associated with the accuser, but it likely never have ever contained the rape kit. It probably didn't. It may have contained her clothes, maybe?

 

Eoannou is adamant that the accuser didn't lie to him. Pretty clearly saying the Mom did.

 

Possible that accuser lives with her Mom, and had this bad in her possession all along?

 

Sheesh.
