I am not saying I believe him. I just want to see the state's version of events and the evidence it has to prove that version of events beyond a reasonable doubt.
This is how every crime other than rape is handled. I do not believe that rape is some sort of "special" class of crime in which the accused no longer has Constitutionally-guaranteed rights.
By saying it was consensual the guy is admitting sexual contact took place... He knows the physical evidence is against him ....The evidence is unlikely that a woman with a good employment history in a very high class /expensive place had sexual contact with a stranger who she dealt with for an extremely short period of time ...If it didnt happen before I doubt that it happened this time
