Charges dropped against Temple football player accused of rape, expelled from the University, stripped of his scholarship, and nationally vilified, after text messages showing that woman made it up to avoid football "groupie" image.

All charges have been dropped against a former Temple football player who was accused of raping a woman in a dorm.
The news came on what was supposed to be the first day of jury selection for Praise Martin-Oguike, 20, who was arrested May 30, 2012 and kicked out of Temple soon after.
A Temple business student from Maryland accused him of raping her inside his dorm room on Park Avenue and Norris streets four days before his arrest.
Martin-Oguike, an native of Nigeria who was raised since age 10 in Sewaren, N.J., by his pastor father and poet mother, maintained that the sexual activity was consensual.
"For the past 18 months, this young man has lived under a terrible cloud," said his attorney, James Funt. "After being branded as a rapist for a crime he did not commit, he was ostracized, stripped of his athletic scholarship, kicked out of Temple University and vilified nationally and on the Internet. The stain on his reputation and the impact on his life will never be completely erased."
Late last month Funt, who is seeking to have the case expunged, filed a motion asking Common Pleas Judge Denis Cohen to allow the woman's text messages between friends to be entered as trial evidence to expose her motive for allegedly lying about being raped.
Funt argued that she had been rejected by several other men, including football players, and did not want to get a campus reputation as a football "groupie" after Martin-Oguike "would not agree to have a romantic long-term relationship with her."
Funt told the judge that the text messages would show that the woman lied about when she last had sex before the alleged rape and would expose that she was injured having sex with another man. In one, which Funt read in court, the woman texted a friend about another sexual encounter two weeks before the alleged rape, remarking on how well-endowed the man was:
"I couldn't deal I was like screaming so much that he put a pillow in my mouth lmfao," the message said in part.
A call to Assistant District Attorney Ashley Lynam, who handled the case, was not returned.

Let me guess, the bitch was white?
Lesson? Hebrews stick to your own kind. Less of a chance that will happen.

funny how the dudes name is all over the place, while not a single mention of the bitches name, protecting her even after they discovered she was lying all the time.

So what happens to the bitch? Life sentence in prison? No? Another reason why the judicial system is fucked. She belongs to rot in a jail cell for the rest of her life

Our own kind is African American, All West Indian, Hispanic and Native American (This includes Hawaiians and Samoans) All Hebrews. I think that's a good enough selection.

Fuck safe. I want the law to be on my side when one these bitches flips and decides to destroy my life because I dont want to be with her anymore..

What's the point though? He won't get anything out of her, and it will cost him money to go after her. It's a lose, lose situation. Best thing he can do is try to get the charges expunged, and move on with his life. Get back in football, finish school, and try like hell to get in the NFL.

There needs to be a judicial precedent set and women that have been proven to purposely falsely accuse someone of rape should face prison time and fines.

AGREED!!!
Give the lying accuser the EXACT same sentence the man would have faced, had he been found guilty.

I agree, but you're not going to accomplish that in civil court. His time would be better spent petitioning his local district to arrest her. Maybe something like, "Justice for __________!" :D

womens groups argue it will stop people coming forward
