EAGLE, Colo. -- The 19-year-old resort worker accusing Kobe Bryant of rape told investigators the NBA superstar attacked her from behind, grabbing her by the neck and forcing himself on her despite repeated protests, according to testimony Thursday...

She stood up to leave and Bryant gave her a hug that led to some consensual kissing, Winters said.

When she turned around to leave, Bryant grabbed her by the neck, pulled up her skirt and raped her against a chair, Winters said. She told investigators she told Bryant "no" at least twice, before bursting into tears as the five-minute attack went on.

During and after the attack, he said, Bryant kept asking, "You are not going to tell anyone, right?" She said she agreed at one point.
