Was reading up on the case and found the following points summarized online. I personally don't agree with the continued vilification of the players but to each their own.
The accuser:
Contradicted her own testimony about initiating physical contact at the bar, changing her story only AFTER being shown video evidence.
Appeared sober and spoke coherently on video during and after the incident.
Admitted in a text to one of the accused that she consented to sex with him.
Texted a third-party friend right after the incident that she was "being dramatic" and that she had put herself in a "bad situation."
Texted that same friend the next day that she "hadn’t been 'lit enough' that night." Again this goes against her claim she was incapacitated by alcohol.
Was described in testimony by one teammate as "vocally" expressing what she wanted sexually in the hotel room.
Was described in testimony by another teammate (not on trial) as "chirping" the players, egging them on, and calling them "pussies" for not engaging with her.
Testified that she did not believe the men would have physically prevented her from leaving the room, which undermined her claim of being trapped by fear.
Rejected an offer of help from a friend at the bar, replying that she was "fine," and then ignored that friend's subsequent calls and messages.
Altered her story about comments made by the players, describing them as "joking" to police but later as "intimidating and frightening" in her civil lawsuit.
Sent snap chats, ect. that she was looking for more guys to hook up with.
Walked past her own clothes multiple times and stayed naked while different people came and left the room.
