<b>And everyone predicted and were prompting Mackey to waive the simple A-B-C prelim. Without that standard prelim we'd have to go close to year before the trial starts without discovering the other fellow's ***** and semen in her undies, not to mention the night auditor, who saw her first (not the bellboy) and stated she looked just fine.
I've also learned that Mackey can appeal the judge's decision on whether to send this case to trial. Experts say it's unusual that the defense would appeal, but then the EXPERTS also said that Mackey would waive the prelim.

Kobe to stand trial

EAGLE, Colo. (AP) - Kobe Bryant must stand trial on a charge of sexually assaulting a 19-year-old resort worker, a judge ruled Monday, clearing the way for a celebrity trial the likes of which hasn't been seen since O.J. Simpson.
Eagle County Judge Frederick Gannett said prosecutors presented enough evidence Bryant might have committed the crime June 30. The Los Angeles Lakers guard could face a life sentence if convicted.
His next appearance, in district court, is set for Nov. 10.
Bryant has said the sex was consensual. His attorneys suggested the woman's injuries came during sex with other men in the days before her encounter with Bryant at a posh resort in nearby Edwards.
