Also, he didn't really mean that he slipped. English is not his first language and he made a bad translation of what he meant to say.
Well he was in her, sperm and all right? I'm not saying you are wrong, I just think the one who wanted the sex would typically be the guy who spent all the money and is 25 years older. Most woman who want to use a guy do not want sex, and they do everything up to that point and then bail, so for you to suggest she wanted to have sex with him just to set him up and was able to even though he didn't want it is really hard to accept looking at the circumstances of what a typical older man who foots most likely a good size bill on young girls is looking for.
Finally and I hate to say it, but many Muslim men can have a much harsher view of women, especially non Muslim women who they see as only sexual toys.

Where does it say he was in her?
No. He still had reproductive liquids on him from having just had sex with another person.
She tried to force herself on him and got those fluids onto her from him.

The London-based Saudi millionaire claimed he may have accidentally penetrated the teenager after he fell on her.
No. He still had reproductive liquids on him from having just had sex with another person.

He said she jumped on him now and grab his hand and put it between her legs to get the DNA there... Ok you win.

Because in this day and age, the only way an innocent man could get from under false rape accusations is with money

AHAHAHAHAHA, HAHAHA, AHAAHA. Oh god, sorry, it's just so demented.
Tell me, what is your reasoning as to how that that semen got all up inside her vagina without penetration?
Did she collect it in a glass and then pour it over her nether regions?
Tell me, if she had a recording or video would you say it was "not proof, possible faked."?
If the other girl was a witness supporting her, would you say "they were in it together"?
Where do the goalposts end?
Without the semen, people would just claim it never happened at all. As the defendant tried to. Now that it's there, they need to attack the victim's character, or accept that just maybe she's telling the truth. Scandalous, I know. A rape accusation that isn't just a woman lying!? You must be mad!
Yes, more is needed. Like the private testimony being made available to the public. But it won't be.
Or, or, and I know this is crazy, but maybe she trusted that her friend's friend/boyfriend wouldn't rape her. I know, such twisted logic, huh?
'She went to his house, therefore she wanted/was willing to have sex.'God, remind me to never visit your place.
Look, it might seem strange to you, but sometimes people want to stay with their friends rather than go home. Maybe she was actually more worried taking a cab while drunk and thought it was safer to stay with the others?

I am not against or in favour of any of the parties, nor do I have a say in the matter. I do trust in the UK judicial system. They decided that this man could not be proven guilty of rape hence they let him go. I am quite frankly a bit shocked to see how some here think they can do better than the judge, where they do not have much to go on other than hearsay.

I don't know, actually, if UK Court decisions are public. Most of them will be, I guess, just to allow barristers etc. to check rulings. This may well be an exception. Perhaps the judge decided that it might harm him if it gets out. Or it may even harm the girls if it gets out. It's up to the Judge to decide.
...
BTW: anybody here that knows if an appeal to a higher courts was issued?
Manners and decorum, please.
Women have fingers.
I did not suggest anything like that.
If I were the defense, I'd certainly would consider it.
I find this highly offensive: the fact that I'm willing to accept a Court decision does not mean that I would ever rape anybody. Manners and decorum, please.
The final decisions are public, but the jury's reasons are not. Disclosing or enquiring into the jury deliberations is actually contempt of court, so you should never be able to know exactly why the jury reached a specific decision.

Of course you would, as the defense. The defense's job is to do anything and everything to get their client the least punishment possible...
originally posted by: EilasvaleleynIf you stop making ridiculous assertions, then I will happily oblige.
Yes, they do [have fingers - FO]. Astute observation. What are you suggesting she did with them? Shove his semen up her own vagina?
But you said it wasn't proof of penetration. Perhaps you should have said 'penetration by the defendant.'
Then, pray tell, how do you suggest the semen got there without "penetration"?
Of course you would, as the defense. The defense's job is to do anything and everything to get their client the least punishment possible... In this case, they managed to get an acquittal. Somehow, despite a story that a ten year old would laugh at.

And I'm offended at you jumping to conclusions.
I'm not saying you're a rapist, I'm saying that you seem to believe that going to someone's house is grounds for reasonable consent.
Yes, I am contemptuous of court, because I am acutely aware that it is not infallible, and I personally detest the way the current system works regardless. If I trusted the system, we wouldn't be having this argument. Alas, as humans are human, it's likely a better one won't be seen in my lifetime.

The outrage is confined to papers using sensationalist headlines and readers who prefer to beat their chests and howl rather than engage their brain cells.
But, as it turns out, "denying ignorance" isn't as much fun as chest-beating and howling in misplaced outrage.

Well, alas, it did. It was in USA Today, in the Daily mail, in the Independent, it was in all kinds of Internet blogs, vlogs and logs. It even was on RT and ATS
