Why does commitment make sex right or wrong? How committed is “committed”? A guy is usually “committed” to stay until the act is done. Maybe until she gets stale or he sees somebody better. Maybe as long as it’s comfortable for him to hang around. Is that “committed”?

Marriage is the promise to stay and to be faithful until death. It doesn’t always work out that way, but if that is the intention then why not make the promise? How true is the intention to stay if you make sure the doors and windows are all wide open just in case you decide to leave? I’ve known couples that cohabitated for years and then when they got married they couldn’t handle it; they had said they were committed before but when they closed the doors behind them they couldn’t handle it. What they had thought was commitment was really just a comfortable situation they knew they could leave at any time.

The cops did wrong here, but she’s pretty stupid if she didn’t just grab the sheet and wrap it around her while she got up.

Usually when the cops raid your house and are screaming at you in the middle of the night with guns drawn, one of their primary commands is “put your hands on your head”. Pretty hard to hold a sheet up if you are in that position.

People recognize this too. That's why she no doubt told the reporters covering this story that the guy in her bed was a "fiance" rather than just a boyfriend. (Of course, they then misspelled the word.) But it's true that the terms "fiancee" and "fiance" are now used to mean something like "sex partner to whom I'm so committed that I remember his/her name the next day."
