I worked for a prosecutor's office for a summer and a rape case was involved. They do NOT love to crucify perpetrators without hard evidence, and basically, if that's in a college town, it's a confession. Prosecutors have to cover their a$$es in case the person who claims rape is lying, because those accused of the crime can sue for unlawful arrest. Just wanted to clarify that point. Let's just say I know this from personal experience, although I was not the rapist nor the person raped.

And one more thing... Prosecutors LOVE rape cases where there is an incriminating video. They would love to crucify any perpetrators they could. If, after viewing the video they decided NOT to prosecute, then the video must not have been to terribly incriminating. The article even called the video "highly ambigious."
