he man accused of raping a woman he met on a social media app called Tinder was found not guilty on Monday, Feb. 1, 2016.

On Saturday, July 26, 2014, a woman called police to report that she had been raped by a man named Jake that she met on Tinder. The woman told police after they met on the social media app, they agreed to meet in person at her apartment.

When Jacob Hirsch Witz arrived, the initial police reports say they sat on the couch and talked a while and moved to the bedroom to talk. The woman's statement to police says Witz became suddenly aggressive and pulled her shorts off. She goes on to say that he slapped her across the face, ripped off her shirt and bra and raped her as she begged him to stop.

The police report says Witz then found the woman's phone and forced her to unlock it so he could delete all text messages between them. He then forced her to take a bath while he watched. The woman told police Witz said "Pretend this did not happen. Don't tell anybody. I did not rape you, I got to get out of here."

Police found Witz and before they could read him his Miranda Rights, he told them he was not answering any questions and wanted an attorney.

Witz was booked into the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison on one count of forcible rape. Two days after his arrest, his bond was raised from $35,000 to $75,000. He bonded out of jail in August 2014.

He was indicted on the charges of forcible rape in Jan. 2015.

In this scenario, can the guy sue the girl in civil court?

not much of an article. Article shed no light on why he was found not guilty.

Can a Baton Rougean give us a little bit of the story?

It would have been nice if WAFB actually shared the information that led to a not guilty verdict.

Yea. I'd like some more details. WAFB article is written in a way that implies the guy might be guilty, pointing out that he "asked for a lawyer before he was read his Miranda rights."

Kind of shitty, IMO.

ETA: shocking coincidence that it was written by a woman.
