Members JerryNumbers Posted November 20, 2013 Members Share Posted November 20, 2013 Alleged victim warned, feared backlash in Winston case In an exclusive interview with the Tampa Bay Times, the alleged victim -- whom the newspaper identified as an FSU student from the Tampa area -- claims she was told by TPD Detective Scott Angulo that Tallahassee was a "big football town," that her life would become "miserable" and she may be "targeted on campus" if she chose to proceed with the December 2012 case. "When the attorney contacted Detective (Scott) Angulo immediately after Winston was identified, Detective Angulo told the attorney that Tallahassee was a big football town and the victim needs to think long and hard before proceeding against him because she will be raked over the coals and her life will be made miserable," the family said in their statement, according to the Times. "The family grew concerned that she would be targeted on campus." For Full Article I suppose football stars are untouchable, a protected species, in this United States of America.

Members Miss Daisy Posted November 20, 2013 Members Share Posted November 20, 2013 I pray this didn't deter this young woman or won't! Tallahassee isn't the only college in the USA. Sports are America's god now a days. Sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JerryNumbers Posted November 23, 2013 Author Members Share Posted November 23, 2013 It seems to be still going completely in the football stars direction, & they refuse to believe the women, & refuse to investigate. Those football stars are very important to a team & community, & get much support. Yes so true, football is Americas God, & it seems they place the football stars as high or higher than God. I know some will get falsely accused, yet refusing to investigate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
