The original post was about being charged in US. The rape acquisitions are between the Swedish government and him. The whole story is extremely messy on many levels. I think that I buy more the accuser's story. Assange is obviously an asshole. But the Swedish government IIRC has repeated refuse to promise not to extradite him to the US. And I definitely see why he cannot afford to go to Sweden to defend himself against the charges. The point that consent can be withdrawn at any point during the interaction - I am not sure it is biologically feasible to have such high standard - a person can rarely be accused of clear mind near and during the climax.
