Whether accusations are true or not, you really have to have everything lined up perfectly if you are an ordinary person accusing someone who can afford to hire top of the line investigators and lawyers and who will have a large portion of the public on his side from the get-go. The woman here may or may not have truth on her side, but often that is a side issue in this type of case anyway. Her chances are slim to none.

What a jerk, I can’t believe he expects the court system to hold a woman responsible for her actions! This is insanity, what next, True equality with the current bad man, good woman motto on Feminist banners taken down? This is crazy!

“relentless assault on his accuser”. Think about that for a second. That’s like saying “merciless self-defense” or something of the sort.
So, a man accused of a crime can’t call into question the accusation or the accuser if the accuser is female and the accusation involves an alleged sex crime. I.e., he should say nothing and offer no defense.
Maybe one day the author of this article will himself be accused by a woman of a sex-related criminal act. I wonder if he’ll say the same thing about his own case. But I hope that never happens to him because, as you can see, no one thinks you should have a defense. He’s a nymphotrope (see http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/nymphotropism), but that doesn’t mean he deserves to be falsely accused, as that would, by his own thinking, lead inexorably to a prison sentence he wouldn’t deserve. Accusation = guilty. Pray you never find yourself there.

Reba needs to get some.
Fact is she’s just pissed McNulty did, and she hasn’t in years. Bitter man-hater.
Now get back in the kitchen Reba…

What’s Frankenberger afraid of? He’s trying to tear her down, offering her multiple settlements. Just let the thing go to trial and let the truth come out if you’re clean.
————————————————-
Hmm…try to get the settlement dropped now so it doesn’t become a lingering pain in your ass …. or, let it go to trial so it becomes a two-year bitchfest, just to prove the point that you’re clean. It’s a real tough one…I dunno…
Wait, no – F that. I’m going to try to get her to drop the case now. Why have that loom on your shoulders for the next 24 months? If you’re serious that you wouldn’t try to get the thing dropped now, if you were in his shoes, you’re a fool.

This does not take away from the fact that:
Ben banged a 4…… not a 10, not a 8 not even an acceptable 6, a freakin 4!!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Did it ever cross your mind that it was probably hogg-nite?
You, no doubt being the macho dude you so exude, would know what that’s all about, no???
You remember that night…don’t lie, afterall how could you forget, no dude ever forgets the night that he proposes!
The only difference here, as I see it, is that after hogg-nite, Ben didn’t end up with a fiance’!!!
The REAL suction INDEED……bwhahahahahahahahahaha

“Plaintiff boasted that her sex encounter with Mr. Roethlisberger as the ‘best ever’ and that she did not care if it ever happened again because the sex was ‘soooo good.’”
Reba,
I guess its not the size of the boat, but the motion in the ocean. As a single, 27 year old man Ben and every other man should wait for marriage to have sex because Jebus said so. Not sure if you mentioned this above, but the best defense is a good offense.
McNulty is already over $300,000 in debt, I wonder why she would sue a guy worth well over $100million?

You should be ashamed of that headline, Florio. By printing it that way, you are implying that Ben not only assaulted her but continues to “relentlessly” assault her in defending himself. It reeks of finding him guilty until proven innocent. No wonder you were welcomed by NBC.

Is Roethlisberger serving as his own attorney?? Isn’t it his lawyers filing these briefs?? It’s a ‘good’ thing you have a back-up career (lol), cuz you suck as a writer…imo. I’m just sayin’……ya know?

Florio, can you write one story about Ben that doesn’t attack him?

Ben Roethlisberger, meet Roger Clemens. You sound a lot alike. Ben Clemens? Roger Roethlisberger!! Florio, you may borrow unattributed.

You just can’t let it go, can you? You just had to use such a loaded title for this post, didn’t you? And then, you had to go on and sound shocked at how “aggressive” the filing is in this case. Have you ever handled a case of this sort? What is your actual legal experience? Before you make any intimations of legal expertise, perhaps it would be helpful for you to give your detailed background, so we can properly evaluate your opinions.

Looking at the facts, it’s clear that Ben didn’t rape this woman…
but isn’t it a crime to have sex with the mentally handicapped? If i were Roflsburger, I’d be worried.

Wow! Not only destroy the plaintiff, but use the filing as an advertisement for Roethlisberger’s sexual prowess as well. “Big Ben” indeed.
Nice piece of work…

Ben is guilty and an idiot. The old saying the best defense is a good offense doesn’t work for him on the field nor will it in the courtroom. Too many accusations and legal mombo jumbo for him to be innocent.
This is a funny ending… most people believe that with men, big hands and big feet mean ….. In Ben’s case big hands and big feet ONLY mean big gloves and big shoes! Poor fella.

Hey Ben,
Have you ever heard the best defense is a good offense? Your offense is off the hook so obviously you have something to hide. Your attys are all smoke and mirrors. I would LOVE to get my hands on those emails addressed not to Ben Roethlisberger but to a Ben Milliken. Hmmm. What is that IP address sent and received? Boy, I bet I would nail your butt to a wall. Ben is shameless and has a God complex. Ben, who died and left you God? NOBODY! Now someone stepped on your foot. What a Pu@@y! Girls talk also… you should watch those commercials late at night about pills that you can use to assist you in one particular area. I heard you need MUCH help there. LMAO
I’m a Steeler fan… however not one of yours. Do us a favor and go ride on your motorcycle!!!!

By: Reba

Reba — Sat, 22 Aug 2009 03:12:59 +0000

Uh, here’s a thought. Are you saying that Roethlisberger is innocent because he says he is? Who died and left him God?
There has always been an old saying that the best offensive is the greatest defense. Ben’s attorneys are coming out blazing. Worried a little gentlemen? Have you seen the Harrah’s videotapes yet? She has a great reputation at the hotel as an associate too.
Let me take a look at those emails and see where they originated. Besides, Ben Roethlisberger’s name is not even on the emails… who is Ben Milliken? Uh… reasonable doubt. Besides this is a civil case and all you need a a perponderance of evidence. The only thing is that it’s too bad she didn’t go to the doctor afterward.
If she is a whore, what does that make Ben? Uh, a whore! He is suppose to be a “winner”…. ACT LIKE IT KID! It is rumored he is the biggest whore in Pittsburgh… and of course girls talk. The rumor is he really needs to get EX-TENZE.

Oh, you have hard disk for your Commodore 64. Wow! Back in 1986 one with a 10MB storage space cost $899.95. (comparing to the Consumer Price Index, it’s the same as $1,768 today)
10MB is the same capacity that 60 floppy disks of those times have. And 60 of those were “a bit” cheaper than $899.95.
Ok, maybe you’ve bought it very recently… The prices may have gone down. Anyway, you are my personal hero now.
