I lived in Avon for a bit before moving to Denver, and was there when this all went down. Kate and I had the same circle of friends, and we knew each other--but just casually. My roommate at the time worked with Kate at the Cordillera, and let's just say we were aware of her "reputation" there. Just leave it at that.

People forget that her two closest friends pretty much disowned her after the accusations came out. It's pretty much impossible to find it online, but her best friend Laie, who is about the sweetest girl you'll ever want to meet, gave a few interviews about how Kate was dedicating her life to sleeping with as many celebrities as she could. It wasn't widely reported. My former roommate--who I still talk to on a regular basis--pretty much knows what went down.

I did find a couple archived interviews--be advised they're somewhat graphic and may not be appropriate for everyone:

Before Kobe Bryant, Kate Faber Had Others On Her Mind

Kobe victim intented to seduce Eminem
all this could be true but that's doesn't mean she was ok with being strangled or other things that happened.

A lot of rape is not reported even in the U.S .
Hard to say but after the incident I'm sure he didn't do it anymore.

I also don't see how some on here can claim she made up the rape when the physical evidence shows otherwise and Kobe himself comes up with a 'safe' statement about how he can see her point of view.

Never thought about it that way but yes, I believe Hollywood is dying.
The movie was so "meh" that you don't even know its correct name.

Or were you referring to the 2000 movie "The Weight of Water"? Nah.

It certainly is radical to care about your sick child over profits for medical corporations.
