Meh, I think you're more of a fan of the legal system than common sense. I don't know what happened but I would've prefer we stay away from this type of nonsense.
I read up on the case, its common sense to question whether the girl was raped or not if she got in lesbo style with her friend in front of Thomas and Vaughn. I'll leave it at though like you say it is better to avoid this type of craziness.
no, that makes no sense. just because someone willingly does freaky stuff doesn't mean if someone f**ks them against their will that they weren't raped.
Im enjoying this debate a lot lol. How does that make no sense? She had girl on girl and possibly even a threesome with Thomas(maybe his smarta** used a condom or never stuck it in lol) so why would it be so strange to wonder if she also had sex willingly with Cox at another time in the night? The sexual act was not in question but whether it was consensual or not is the real issue and by stating that she was willing to have sex with another girl and possible Thomas as well then it brings into question whether she willingly or unwillingly had sex with Cox.
The whole point of the league system is to bring the persons character into question and that is what Thomas' statement did, and it was a response to the prosecutions question not defenses. Thomas opened Pandora's box with that statement by indicating that she was promiscuous and was coherent later in the night, indicating she was likely just asleep earlier in the evening because typically when you "pass out" it is for hours if not an entire night.
its a common tactic to paint the victim as a slut, and then make the argument that a slut would never say "no" to sex.
IT's also not an unheard of tactic for someone to consent then call it rape later. Particularly when theres someone with money.
Only those present know what happened that evening. If he did it, he's quite the disgusting person, but I can also see how he can be falsely accused as people have been before. I personally refrain from judging what I cannot know for sure.
