Fight or flight is pretty primitive.  He wasn't sober when he fled.  Either he knew he was committing a crime, panicked and fled, or thought he wasn't committing a crime, panicked and fled.[/quote]

People don't usually panic and flee when they're not doing anything wrong. [/quote]
Remember the Duke lacrosse case? The UVA "Jackie" BS? Accusations of rape can absolutely ruin someone's life. He obviously did it in this case, and I think he's a monster, but fact is there is a culture of "guilty until proven innocent" in many of these cases.[/quote]

Maybe because they're usually guilty. Most rapist get away with it anyway. [/quote]

I will point out that this man was found guilty. That is not up for debate. He was charged with 5 things. He was convicted of 3 of them. He was not convicted of the first 2 charges (raping an unconscious person and raping an intoxicated person), I assume because California rape law defines rape as non-consensual intercourse and doesn't include fingers in the equation. He was, however, convicted of the other 3 charges. He couldn't spent 14 years in jail. Prosecutors recommended 6 years. The sentencing judge gave him 6 MONTHS, plus probation.[/quote]
