Bryan Matthews Has Magical Hands
You might remember Bryant Matthews as a forward who averaged over 20ppg for Virginia Tech his senior year in ’03-’04. He never made it in the NBA, and subsequently signed on to play pro basketball in Australia. Things were going swell for Matthews up until recently, when it was announced he would be sentenced to 18 months in jail on rape charges. And by goodness, these aren’t just any rape charges. Oh no, not your typical charges.
Matthews was at a Sydney hotel with friends on August 30 last year where the group met a 21-year-old woman.
One of the men took the woman to a property at Erskineville, in Sydney’s inner west, where they had sex.
Other members of the group, including Matthews, later visited the property where they watched the couple having sex through a door to the room which was slightly ajar.
Judge Ainslie-Wallace said Matthews, under the influence of alcohol, entered the room, sat on the bed and inserted his fingers into the woman’s vagina.
“The victim became alarmed when she realised she could see both of her partner’s hands,” Judge Ainslie-Wallace said.
“(Matthews) said that when she did that he rolled off the bed and lay on the floor trying to hide.
“In relation to inserting his fingers into her vagina he (said he) thought it was cool with her.”
My friends, that is what we call “The Houdini.” I’ll let you figure that one out on your own. And honestly, what judge and jury wouldn’t buy that excuse?
