This student is out with this girl who was making out with him and such. The video evidence shows that she willingly took him back to her room and even made sexual gestures at her friend in regards to her intentions. From what I can gather in the story she claims she did not consent and since they were both drunk (according to what I read) I believe she thinks she did not give consent because she was too drunk to do so. That seems to be logically what is going on here since the video clearly shows her intentions. She was all over him at the bar and then takes him back to her room. Now I guess it's not out of the realm of possibility that she could have been raped at that point but there isn't any evidence that is what happened.
Then there is what happened after the incident. Apparently she isn't the one who reported him. Her roommates did that and she says she had no intention of doing so. She says in one of the articles about this that she wouldn't want him to go to jail for what he allegedly did that night. But she is also happy that The Office of Equity and Diversity is still finding him responsible (don't know why) which resulted in him being expelled from school. That just doesn't make sense to me. When it comes to rape either a guy did it or he didn't. If he did then he should be charged for it and go to jail. If he didn't do it and is vindicated (which a judge found this guy not guilty) then he should get no repercussions at all.
I just read this story and might not have the details perfect. I don't know for sure exactly what happened. I will say that in cases where a girl chooses to have sex drunk and then regrets it she should not be allowed to then call that rape. That is retarded and should not be happening. Rapists need to be caught every time. It is just as big a problem if a false accusation happens which messes up the life of an innocent person. We should have laws and rules that catch the real criminals here and protect people from false accusations. I don't understand why this college chose to expel this guy after a judge ruled in his favor.
