EAGLE, Colo. -- Kobe Bryant's prosecutor outlined the sexual assault case for the first time Wednesday, saying there are photographs of injuries to Bryant's accuser and a videotaped statement from her about what happened in the NBA superstar's hotel suite last June.
In a court brief, Eagle County District Attorney Mark Hurlbert said he planned to present the evidence at the Oct. 9 preliminary hearing that will determine whether Bryant will stand trial. He also said the main investigator in the case will testify, along with a nurse.
Hurlbert detailed the evidence as he asked the judge to throw out a defense subpoena issued for the accuser. Hurlbert said testifying at the hearing would subject the 19-year-old woman to needless "anxiety and intimidation." The defense, Hurlbert said, can instead question investigators about the accuser.
