The metadata of the pictures on her phone are consistent with the timeline she claimed the abuse occurred. The police couldn't corroborate that with the technology they had.
Which proves nothing.
My wife can create a timeline based on actual facts when we were together and claim I beat her when in fact I did not. Just because a photo backs up a claim as to when she was beaten, does not mean she was actually beaten by Elliott.
Further, that metadata apparently proved to the NFL that something probably happened on that last night in question. PRoblem is, her story has been refuted by multiple witnesses. So then, just how reliable is that metadata?
Essentially, the NFL case is that they have pictures that would seem to be time stamped around the right time she claimed she was beaten, they can put the two together on the days she claims she was beaten, and while THEY CAN'T PROVE HE HIT HER, the fact he can't prove he didn't, is more than enough to hang him. They also just glossed right over the clear credibility issues the alleged victim had.
I hope if Elliott is able to strike this down in court, he goes after Goodell and the NFL for defamation. If he truly did not commit these crimes and can prove it, the league has sullied his name, likely in the name of getting good, positive PR for themselves in the DV area after so many previous screw ups.
