I think we should have a little sympathy for the victim in this case. Whether or not she was raped, the fact remains that, at one point in time, she felt as though she was - strongly enough to approach the police department about it.
Yes, it is a good thing for Jerrard Tarrant, and for our football team, but there is another person in this.
The case could have been dropped because the DA thought she was lying, it could have been dropped because she decided against it, or it could have been dropped because of insufficient evidence. We don't know enough to make blanket statements of "this is good for all parties."
Of course, though, we don't know if it has been dropped yet or not.
