[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The saddest thing about this case to me is that two men could witness a woman's rape in progress and people still go out of their way to defend and excuse the rapist. "He didn't actually rape her." (Well, no. The witnesses stopped it from happening.)  "He's a good kid who made a mistake." (He was raping a woman behind a dumpster.)  "She was really drunk."  (Rapists usually pick easy targets, and that is often people who are really, really drunk.) "This has ruined his life!" (He ruined his life.)

If people can defend a rapist caught in the act of rape, then there really is no hope for our culture. [/quote]

You've articulated what I find the most frustrating about this case. It doesn't matter what the case entails - it's always going to come down to what SHE did. Over 100 pages of why was SHE drunk? Why didn't SHE take steps to defend herself?

Why didn't HE not rape her?

Why does our fucked up society fall all over itself to defend a guy who was caught in the act? And fall all over itself some more to drag a rape victim through the mud? [/quote]Yes, for example, let's ask why did he get so drunk that (and this is being charitable now) that he didn't recognize that the woman was unconscious?  What kind of person gets that drunk?  It's certainly irresponsible behavior at a minimum.[/quote]
