I am not sure what you're expecting the level of credibility to be or from where they would fall. The legal team has already lost the court case and the appeal. This is a website and isn't subject to the rigours of a court examination, they can upload what they want (within reason).

In this case they're putting tweets obtained by someone else as is and are not personally swearing that they're authentic. As presented there is no way these tweets would be allowed in a court. Even if they were they would have to show that it's related to this case, they're currently not put in any context.

At the moment they're just tweets on a webpage which are presented out of context and with no way for us to know if it's true or not. Worse, they're being used to attack the character of the victim in this case when a court has already decided the case had merit enough to secure a conviction.
