- buboard 7y agowaking up with sex isnt the same as unconscious sex. and its apparent from the description in the article that it was consensual
- ChrisSD 7y agoThe allegation is there was no consent. From the arrest warrant: > 4. Rape > On 17 August 2010, in the home of the injured party [SW] in Enkoping, Assange deliberately consummated sexual intercourse with her by improperly exploiting that she, due to sleep was in a helpless state.
- buboard 7y agosure he s accused of it. not the worst form of rape but still rape accusation. he should under normal circumstances go to court. but obviously the case is a part of a much bigger tangle here
- sammex 7y agoit is absolutely rape.
