The defence lawyers said they happened to be looking at exhibits handed to them in a binder Friday and noticed texts that hadn't been disclosed before the trial. The texts at issue were sent by the woman to Rose.
RULE OF ROSE RAPE TRIAL
Rose testified that he has permission from New York Knicks President Phil Jackson to miss the next three preseason games until the trial is concluded. A bus ride in the countryside, a letter of disapproval, darkness creeping, trees twisting, guilt drowning her, a conversation with an unknown man. And so, she decided to go back where all started. The judge said that if there is a mistrial it would push a new trial into the NBA regular season. But a brave girl who was carrying a burden, a heavy burden of guilt. "You have been very careless with the exhibits," Fitzgerald said. Fitzgerald to declare a mistrial because they had not been given three text messages important to their case until Friday, when Rose was on the witness stand.įitzgerald, who used the phrase "unbelievably careless" several times, said it was not a frivolous matter and he told the lawyers to prove the texts had been disclosed.
RULE OF ROSE RAPE SERIAL
Rape Day was a 'dark comedy and power fantasy' visual novel that allowed the player to 'control the choices of a menacing serial killer rapist during a zombie apocalypse.' The games store page included numerous warnings related to the content.
The trial is proceeding even as a judge considers a declaring mistrial after criticizing the plaintiff's lawyers as "unbelievably careless" in production of exhibits. Rule of Rose: PS2: Punchline: The Mayor of Rome called for the game to be banned from Italy. Rose was expected to wrap up his testimony in the afternoon. The Associated Press is not naming the woman because it generally does not identify people who say they are victims of sexual assault. "When she sent me texts like that 99 per cent of the time it ended up in sex, so what do you expect?" he said. He said the woman had consented all the previous times they had sex over an 18-20 month period.Īlthough they had split up a couple months before, he said he took her suggestive text the morning of Aug. When asked by his own lawyer, he said he was nervous at the deposition and he defined consent as both parties being in agreement. Rose testified he was raised by a single mother, who was his mentor and had taught him to respect women.Īttorneys for the woman showed video taken of Rose in June testifying at his deposition in which he said he didn't understand the word consent. Rose said the woman was sober and he assumed consent based on their past, a text message she sent out of the blue that morning saying he made her "horny" and her behaviour throughout the day and night. The woman claims the three entered her apartment and had sex with her while she was blacked out after drinking tequila at Rose's rental house earlier. Rose was testifying for a second day in the $21.5 million lawsuit that claims he and his friends had sex without the woman's consent when she was incapacitated from drinking and, possibly, drugs. Rose said he believed she was sober and never witnessed any burns the night before. Rose said he became suspicious of the woman when she texted later the same day of the alleged attack in August 2013 to say how inebriated she had been and to describe burns she claimed she got on her hands from a fire pit outside his Beverly Hills house.
