Disaster struck in 2003. Kobe got accused and arrested for his rape/sex scandal in Eagle, Colorado shortly after knee surgery. The case was eventually dismissed after the accuser refused to testify.

The humbling accusation, however, changed people’s perception of him as a person. He was even dropped by Adidas (I bet they regretted this). Now, in retirement, haters still call him a rapist and do everything to tarnish his greatness.
