WTF IS THIS. We dont know what took place, why is everyone judging a person without any actual proof of what has happend? IF he did rape her, he deserves jailtime or worse! but we dont have any proof. wtf happend to innocent until proven guilty? this shit needs to stop. ( I AM ONLY TALKING ABOUT PEOPLE WHO ARE CALLING A PERSON GUILITY OR A RAPIST WITHOUT ACTUAL PROOF, I AM IN NO WAY SAYING THAT RAPIST SHOULD BE ABLE TO WALK AWAY BY PAYING THE VICTIM!)
Just to clear things up. i do believe something shady did happen, but that is my opinion. i also understood they served him a court order in italy last week. so lets see how this plays out. i also wonder if he is legally forced to go to the usa to attend the court order?Correct, he is innocent, but his actions speak quite loud.
So yeah...
- Statement where he admits her saying 'Stop' and 'No', then redacts this
- He apologized after the sex
- Above, they wheren't even able to serve him the court order...
The problem is Ronaldo basically admitted to the rape (and admitted to the extent of physical harm that Mayorga experienced, as well as the lack of consent on her part to what he wanted to do), and Mayorga had a smoking gun to his head for him to face consequences for his actions. Frankly, I find it stupid that all it takes is money to make the charges disappear. If you commit a crime, especially one as egregious as rape, then you deserve to go to jail.

I don't want to put pressure on you but I find such interventions puzzling. Do you have any reason to show emotions in this context. The fact that these things happen to random strangers should leave you stoic.I hope she can find some peace with hundreds of thousands of dollars then.
He's not legally obligated to fly to the US and there's no court order for his arrest abroadJust to clear things up. i do believe something shady did happen, but that is my opinion. i also understood they served him a court order in italy last week. so lets see how this plays out. i also wonder if he is legally forced to go to the usa to attend the court order?
Isn't this just a US legal system thing? I'm no expert on US criminal law, but say that this crime was committed in Belgium, the victim 'dropping the charges' would not have any concequences at all. The crime is completely seperate from the wishes of the victim. If the crime is committed the authorities will decide whether to persue it in court or not.
The criminal charges do not dissapear. Thats up to a prosecutor to decide. Civil charges dissapear because those are strictly between two private parties.The problem is Ronaldo basically admitted to the rape (and admitted to the extent of physical harm that Mayorga experienced, as well as the lack of consent on her part to what he wanted to do), and Mayorga had a smoking gun to his head for him to face consequences for his actions.

sure but it doesnt disappear automaticallyThe criminal case is going to be much weaker without the alleged victim testifying/suing.

No, he didn't. Settling isn't an admission of guilt. Another reason why someone public and famous would settle is to prevent any further reputational damage, to make someone go away.
All they have against him is the victim's words, essentially. It's going to be next to impossible to have a case now.
The person isn't referring to the settlement but Ronaldo saying in writing she said stop and no multiple times. It's linked in this thread.
Documents Ronaldo and his team said were incorrect and had been edited.
