Motions Filed in Bryant Case: While I don't want this blog to become a police blotter, the motions filed today in the Kobe Bryant case have strong legal significance. The key is the motion filed by the defense, asking to admit evidence of the victim's previous mental state, including two attempts at suicide. The relevance of this evidence will be questioned, as well as whether the Rape Shield Laws prevent its admittance. A number of other evidentiary and procedural motions were filed as well.
