Judge says you must refer to Kobe accuser as Kate Faber

DENVER -- A federal judge on Wednesday rejected a request from the woman
accusing NBA star Kobe Bryant of rape to remain anonymous, saying the
public's interest in open court proceedings outweighs her desire to shield
her identity.
"The parties appear as equals before the court and that fundamental
principle must be protected throughout these proceedings," U.S. District
Judge Richard Matsch said in a four-page decision. No trial date has been
set.
Attorneys for the 20-year-old woman had asked Matsch to protect her
identity, saying she has been subjected to death threats, media pursuit and
sordid publicity for more than a year. Attorneys for Bryant opposed the
request earlier this week, saying she shouldn't be able to bring a "false
accusation" without being identified.
An attorney for the woman, John Clune, said he had not seen the ruling and
had no immediate comment. He said there were no plans to drop the civil
suit, which seeks unspecified damages for what the woman says has been
ridicule, pain and suffering since the incident.
Matsch said if he allows the woman to remain anonymous it could be
misconstrued as a prejudgement in her favor.
"It is apparent that the adjudication of the plaintiff's claims by trial
will require the jury to determine the credibility of the parties, and that
the defendant must have a fair opportunity to confront his accuser," Matsch
said. "Public confidence in the results of court proceedings require that
they be open to observation."
The defense had said the woman wanted to preserve her anonymity "while
exposing the intimate details of her sexual encounter with Mr. Bryant and
requiring him to bear alone the burden of constant public scrutiny." It said
there was no point to it because her name is so easily found online.
"Her anonymity, such as it is, is in the hands of the media," the defense
said in its filing.

If Bryant's attorneys can call her a false accuser, it's only fair
that her attorneys should be allowed to call her a victim.
By the way, your subject line is a lie.

Well she is the victim of "ridicule, pain and suffering since the incident,"
which she brought on herself by making the false accusation. So I guess I
agree.
By the way, your subject line is a lie.
Why? Isn't that her real name?

She hasn't been anonymous since Kobe's lawyers "mistakenly" said her
name 4 times in court.

That's pretty revisionist. Via a quick Google search of
alt.sports.basketball.nba.la-lakers, her full name has
been available since July 15, 2003. In addition, a few
media outlets (The Globe and Tom Leykis come to mind) began
naming her soon thereafter. So it was publicly available
long before the preliminary hearing.
The preliminary hearing, on the other hand, did nothing
to reveal her name. One, it was already well known to
anybody who cared by that time. Two, the hearing was not
broadcast -- only the people present heard Mackey say her
name, and I sincerely doubt anyone in attendance didn't
already know it. Can you cite a single case of someone
not knowing her name prior to the hearing, hearing it for
the first time from Mackey, and as a result of that
releasing it publicly?

Liar. Her identity was public long before that.

The prosecutor has been hoping that the notoriety of this
case and the fact that Kobe was immediately identified,
would lead to women coming forward with similar claims
against him.
I wonder if people will now come forward to accuse
Katelyn Faber of crying "rape" before.
