Update: The courts went after her. She was arrested and charged and the judgement is she has to not only pay back the 1.5 million she was given but she was also fined another 1.1 million for a total of 2.6 million. We know she doesn't have the money but hopefully she will be held accountable to pay something most likely forever and if not then be locked up!

Unfortunately, the consequences for rape and kidnapping is astronomically, disastrously dire that it would scare anyone, especially those without any experience in the justice system. Also if you're not wealthy, you cannot afford to hire the best legal defense team. So he was given very lousy advice: plea agreement with the prosecution for a reduced sentence, which the judge does not have to adhere to. And didn't. Really awful and happens more often than we'd care to think about.

This case has disturbed the hell outta me since I first heard it three years ago. First of all, there's the question of how the hell it is possible in modern America for a man to be incarcerated based solely on the word of ONE PERSON(!), and zero corroborating evidence? (And granted, this is complicated by the fact that his trial attorney somehow persuaded him to plead "no contest", so we must ask the question of whether it was the legal system, or an incredibly stupid lawyer, who should bear responsibility here.) And certainly, we cannot dismiss race and class as having had a role here. Then we have the matter of this man's accuser, and the way the justice system has treated her. She basically admitted to a willingness to destroy this man's life for the sake of a quick monetary payoff. Is this not just as horrible a crime as that for which Brian was convicted? (Yes, I'm sure there are some feminists who would argue otherwise.) And what justice does she get for it? Yes, she's been ordered to pay damages to the school. But one really has to question whether even that would have ever happened had it not been for the publicity generated by this story. And what about criminal charges against Ms. Gibson? As far as I can see, it looks like no one has even given that a cursory consideration. Even Brian says he's not vindictive, and that's very admirable of him. But as a society, do we not owe it to ourselves to tell potential false accusers everywhere that there is a steep price to pay for deliberately destroying other people's lives? Having said all that, I would really like to know whether there is anything more to this story that has been glossed over? I've searched google and haven't found much beyond the basic facts. Does anyone know of a detailed accounting of the trial procedures or police reports that can be found online? It's just so troubling to think that an innocent man can serve five years behind bars based on the testimony of one solitary person, that one can't help but wonder whether there have been any omissions in the generally accepted mass-media story. For example, was there ANY other incriminating evidence or testimony, other than Ms. Gibson's? Did Brian have any kind of criminal record that worked against him at the time? I'd appreciate it if anyone can point me to a comprehensive account of what transpired during the legal proceedings.

Imagine if he would have plead not guilty, and the judge gave him 41 years or even 20. He would have never been able to expose the wickedness of a classless young women....

***** yea doesn't feel good does it maybe you'll think twice before you make generalized statements...I would never call all men rapists you should be a little more cautious in speaking to people you don't know you still would've got your point across without categorizing me with a derogatory word I stand by mine and you stand by yours .not all women lie about assaults and the ones that do make it hard for the women who are and not all men are innocent either nor are they guilty but at the end of the day I am happy he's no longer in jail ..but enjoy your day and find someone else to cyber bully b over their opinion

And that's why a testimony of a single person is not enough to convict someone of rape. She destroyed the life of a fellow teen and she didn't give a shit. What kind of evil human being do you have to be. Good for him he has good morals. Many people would have gone after her, by law or driving over her with a car 10 times. And that lawyer is horrible. Plea of no contest, on rape charges? Freaking kidding me. Why didn't she just put him i jail herself.

And, to boot, the Deputy DA said that Brian "pleaded guilty" to the crime. He did NOT. Under advice from his attorney, he pleaded no contest. With an attorney like that, who needs enemies? Brian and his mom are VERY remarkable. I hope Wanetta gets what's coming to her.

The DA officer says "justice has been served"... really? They convicted and innocent man and sent him to jail for years which he'll never get back. His career as a football player was ruined and his potential earnings. It was only the stroke of luck that the b...h contacted him and he managed to get a confession. What if she hadn't? He would have still been wearing a tag... and they say justice has been served? No... this man had to suffer in prison, suffer disgrace in the community, suffer the loss of his career, had luck on his side and had to fight to get his innocence proven, that wasn't anything SERVED to him. What a disgrace of the US so called "justice system"... the most unjust system on earth.
