Just as it's completely unfair to assume the information in the charging documents is the unadulterated truth, it's also completely unfair to assume the information in the motion to dismiss is the unadulterated truth. Both of them are simply the accounts of each party, presented to best support their case. It's unfortunate for all parties involved, and hopefully the courts will be able to discover the truth of the matter. Until then it's all just biased, speculative BS. :twocents:

Speaking of defense, I am a little surprised this much is made public before court proceedings. Based on the dismissal documents, how difficult would it be to find out who Jane Doe is? We know who her friends, and acquaintances are. We know where she works, or volunteers, where she is from. It would not take much to know who she is. I thought her identity was to be protected in the process. If, I were her, family, friends, or lawyer, I would be very upset about what was made public knowledge.
Sorry, but the names mentioned, the details of where she grew up, where she works/volunteers, should not be pubic knowledge at this stage! Those kind of things, need to be blacked out, for the sake of the accuser. As for the details, and the defenses side of the case, I feel all that is free game, and should be public knowledge.
Would anyone of legal background mind adding to the confidentiality, of what was just released? In my opinion, this information has put the accuser at risk.
mtgrizrule said:Sorry, and no offense intended to the defense, or the accuser, after reading the documents from each side, I honestly do not see how a jury would convict on this. I had some doubts before reading the dismissal documents. After reading those, I don't see this going to trial, let alone, JJ being convicted.
A female friend of mine, read the documents, and she even said, he will walk. She is not from Montana, and knows nothing of JJ, or anyone involved. She did ask a good question, that I have not seen presented here, or mentioned anywhere. Granted, it may be an exaggeration, but did make me curious. She mentioned, from her own sexual experience, and a few friends, who is to say the abrasions were not caused by her pleasing herself with her own toys? I laughed when she asked that. She told me, she was serious, she knows of females taking on a little too big of challenge to please themselves, and it caused irritation, and pain in the vagina area.
She honestly believes, if there is not any sign of DNA from JJ, in that area, and the defense wants to play hardball, it could be something they could use. She also thinks it is very possible for a scorned woman to resort to causing herself some pain to make a guy look guilty. Then again, like everyone here, she does not know what happened. She is pretty sold on JJ's defense, and the prosecution not having enough to risk taking this to trial.
In addition, she questions, why her male roommates would not have done anything, if they suspected anything? They are likely trusting, caring friends, that are likely close, and protective of her. She feels most women, with male house mates, would likely tell her male roommates in advance, such and such is coming over, no need to worry, and she wants "alone" time with a guy.
On the other hand, if it were a guy she was not so sure of, she likely would have told them, to keep an eye out for her, and made sure to have kept the setting social with her roommates. Even a clue statement, like offering JJ to play some video games with them. She just does not understand how a male roommate would not be protective of her, if the girl was not comfortable with any guy. In a nutshell, she thinks this girl had regrets, after the fact, got emotionally hurt, and then decided to pursue it the way she did.
That aside, the text messages does not look good for the accuser/defense either.

Yes!! I said it about the initial affidavit with the witnesses' names at the back, and now this motion to dismiss giving context to who some of those people are in relation to the victim. It is NOT hard to find out those involved, especially in this digital culture with details of people being searchable via social networking, and with us living in a relatively small state/community. IMO, including that kind of information is EXTREMELY negligent, but maybe it is standard for that sort of thing to be included?
mtgrizrule said:Argh, it was not intended for you, or anyone, to agree with, or even debate.
Do you know this girl, or family? I do not expect a comment. Speaking of agitation, it seems you are agitated when someone mentions a possibility, that does not look good for her side.
Sorry, did not mean to "agitate" you.

An initial witness list is always included in a charging indictment/affidavit to prosecute, in Montana. There is no grand jury process in Montana, so the defense gets access to prosecution witnesses the moment the charges are released.

Ok, obviously I am no lawyer so I wasn't sure if that was standard for witnesses to be included in the affidavit. It's understandable the defense would have access to prosecution witnesses, is it also standard for that to be made public without censoring of those names? Just seems negligent, especially in a case like this where a lot is on the line and it could be possible for witnesses to be located and 'pursuaded' by threats or what not.

How is anyone intimidating someone? That would be quite a feat, to be in Denver, not knowing either party, personally, and being on a witness list. :thumb:

With that said, it does look shaky for the prosecutor, however I still believe this will go to trial and that this will be a messy case. Not going to be fun for anybody.
