Ktsnake, at the time James posted the words "she owes him a freebie" I did not interpret that turn of a phrase as funny. I was initially very upset. Even after he said it was a "flippant" comment, I chalked it up to his ignorance. I guarantee you if he had been in a bar and said it in front of a group of women that still wouldn't fly. Rape whether it happens to a man,woman, or child is something that shouldn't be joked about.
The freed man shows alot of poise for bearing no ill will toward this woman. I agree that he should receive finanicial compensation, as well as counseling services at the states expense. He has every right to sue her. I think he should get as much help as possible. I'm sure she's been living in her own private hell.
Originally his brother was charged with the rape, I'm curious as to whether he'll be tested for DNA in this case.
