Witness: Pablo Sandoval socializing in Santa Cruz' wee hours prior to alleged sexual assault - San Jose Mercury News
A San Francisco Giants player who sparked a report of sexual assault Friday morning had been socializing with fans the night before at Motiv on Pacific Avenue in Santa Cruz, the bar manager confirmed Sunday.
About 4:30 a.m. Friday, the Santa Cruz County Sheriff's Office received a complaint that 25-year-old third baseman Pablo Sandoval had sexually assaulted a woman he met earlier in downtown Santa Cruz, according to a statement Saturday by Lt. Fred Plageman.
The woman met a small group of people and went with them to Seascape Beach Resort in Aptos, where the alleged assault occurred, Plageman said.
Sandoval, a San Francisco resident, cooperated with the investigation and was questioned but not arrested, Plageman said.
His attorney, Eric Geffon, said the sexual activity had been consensual. No details about the alleged assault or victim were released.
Motiv manager Isaac Cook said Sandoval had been hanging out at the bar for at least two hours Thursday night with two men. He said he believed the men were his brother and his agent.
Cook said they left about 1:15 a.m. and that he didn't see any women leave with them.
"Women and men were coming up to him all night, taking pictures and talking to him," he said. "He was very lucid and friendly. We didn't have any problems."
It's not yet clear whether any charges will be brought against Sandoval.
As is normal procedure, the Sheriff's Office will complete its
investigation and forward a report to the county district attorney, who will decide whether to file charges.Sandoval was leading the Giants in home runs and RBIs when he fractured a bone in his left hand May 1. He had surgery two days later and is expected to play four or five games in the minor leagues before rejoining the Giants' active roster.
Now, RSS mouthpiece cautions 'intolerant' Narendra Modi - Times of India
"Whatever be the truth in reports, opponents of BJP get an opportunity to attack the party if such a popular leader (Modi) acquires an image of being intolerant who cannot take his colleagues along," a column in the Hindi weekly said.
The weekly column Manthan by Devendra Swarup, who is well-regarded in Sangh circles, is gushing in its praise for Modi's accomplishments, including how he has come out unscathed of the efforts, at the instance of Congress chief Sonia Gandhi, to ensnare him in court cases and a plethora of SIT investigations. Yet the column - coming close on the heels of the dig at Modi in BJP's mouthpiece Kamal Sandesh - is bound to further roil the already troubled waters.
'Must review style of functioning'
The column criticizes the attempt by former Gujarat CMs Keshubhai Patel and Suresh Mehta and other detractors of Modi to mobilize Patels along caste lines and alleges that they could have been incited by the Congress chief. However, it argues that the fact that these senior leaders had to resort to such means underscores the need for Modi to have a "relook at his style of functioning and organization capabilities".
Swarup suggests that Modi is not the obvious saffron choice for PM. "There is no doubt that besides the chief ministers of its states, many among BJP's central leaders also have the competence required of a Prime Minister," he said.
The veteran saffron columnist has also said that the BJP should refrain from naming its choice for PM before the parliamentary polls, thanks to its democratic organizational structure and can also counter Congress's "dynastic politics". "BJP's democratic organizational structure should be left for the members of the victorious parliamentary party. BJP should take such a principled stand in case it intends to make dynastic politics a campaign theme for the 2014 polls," Swarup contended.
On balance, however, his tone is that of concerned sympathizer of Modi than that of a critic. Swarup says that Gujarat under Modi has become an example of economic development and administrative competence, emphasizing that even Muslims are in the state are thriving. It also debunks the attempt of Keshubhai Patel and others to mount a fresh challenge to the Gujarat CM, saying that it could be part of a fresh plot to destabilize the state government after the failure of other machinations to trap Modi.
