Smart move on his part taking down that site.
I can understand you buying a domain to contain fallout, I would do the same, but using it to then market to people. That is way over the line.
If he wanted to help he could have set up a donation site on that domain to ask for and collect donations which would then go directly to a womens abuse charity or shelter.

As to naming his team to bury the old case in Google results? That's a pretty big stretch. I'd bet that prior to this week, he hadn't even thought about the 1990 incident in years.

You're right, it is a bit of a stretch. Oh well, that was my big conspiracy theory, back to reading about chem trails....

He TESTIFIED UNDER OATH that he wanted to at the time. He also TESTIFIED UNDER OATH that he thought it was a consentual encounter at the time.
Someone knowingly wanting to take part in a gang rape? Horrible.
Someone wanting to participate in what they believed was a consentual sexual encounter? Not nearly as big a deal. Still a little scummy, IMO, but the idea of group sex with other guys involved grosses me out, so your mileage may vary.

Perhaps I didn't convey my point clearly, which may be why you feel I missed your point.
We both feel he is a piece of trash.
The contention seems to be, is whether he is a "rapist". You are looking at it from a legal perspective, and thus, he is not a rapist. I am looking at it from a moral perspective(albeit my own moral code) and thus, he is a rapist.
If someone intends and attempts to do something, be it rape, murder or steal, they are then a rapist, murderer or thief morally. A penis that is not able to get errect, a gun malfunctioning, or stolen goods falling out of a pocket, does not change what the person is. At least not in my view.

Guys, it should be obvious but jokes making light of rape are not going to be tolerated in threads on this subject. If you want to joke about rape, it has to be somewhere else in the forum, and not in this context.

He didn't intend to commit rape. He intended to have sex. He believed the encounter was consentual at the time, and testified to that effect.
If he had obtained an erection and penetrated her, he would have committed rape. Ironically, without intending to commit rape.
So let me guess, despite not committing the actual crime, or even intending to commit the crime, you still consider him a rapist, right?
