Right now the main defense in a rape case is to try to discredit the accuser by any means necessary


That is how the legal system works. It is unfortunate but the standard cannot be allegation=guilty, period.

"Mr. Winston's defense, and Mr. Winston maintains his innocence. We voluntarily submitted DNA last week."

You also realize that these surveys are given by an organization with an agenda, right? They can define anything they want as "rape" so their point is supported by the survey. This survey's definition of "rape" could be so low so that what Mettenberger did at UGa is "rape".

Rapists are a criminal class. they are not the ordinary Joe. "Getting all he could handle" consensually has nothing to do with it.

Find me a flaw in the methodology

show me his definition of "rape", b/c that's almost assuredly the flaw/issue

if we want to expand the definition of rape to the extent these studies like to use, then we need to double and more the rates of unreported rapes, b/c drunk guys have sex all the time and are raped by women (while, technically, the man is raping the girl).

No no. Rapists are those who are accused of rape.

You sound very scared of being falsely accused of rape. I am not sure why anyone would have such a fear unless you engage in borderline rapey behavior...

This is an odd point of view. Are you asserting being rapey is genetic?

I posted a link from the government regarding the rate of reporting.

the government doesn't have a very good definition of rape, and it's a sexist slant that envisions females being so stupid that they can't drink and have sex, while males can. that's terrible and sexist

I haven't read this entire thread, but has anything come out about the person who allegedly witnessed the rape?


I don't know about if ti is that witness, but Winston's attorney has had two witnesses give affidavits to the state attorney that are expected to clear Jameis, one of which has been interviewed. But OP felt like leaving that part of the timeline out.


Why is the exculpating evidence from two witnesses not in the timeline?

I know for every "Well he did this" can be returned with "Well she said this" but why would he voluntarily submit to a DNA swab if he did this. Especially submit to it before her side of the story came out yesterday. Wouldn't he just stay quiet and not give up anything in hopes that it gets dropped with lack of evidence? Wouldn't he just wait until a DNA swab was taken during the trial?

Especially since he has said literally nothing since all of this came out?

Nice strawman.

quote:

Because as a hetero man rape is a disgusting thing to think about.

The psychology of rapists is usually unique, even among other sexual deviancy. Which gets back to my point that ordinary hetero men do not think about raping people because its disgusting to them.

well, one thing is obvious. If the act concluded at 2:00 AM and the girl showed up at the police station at 4AM, this is not a case of the girl just being embarrassed or feeling remorseful later.

Either the girl is being truthful, or else you would almost have to say she trapped him and planned this. Since Winston was not even playing last year, it's hard to believe that the girl specifically targeted him.

Let it play out, but right now I would say that Winston, FSU authorities, and Tallahassee law enforcement aren't looking too good.

Why don't you find one of their definitions and post it?
