Yes, the woman made a very bad mistake.
Yes, there could be a civil/criminal lawsuit brought against her.
But she does not ever, even for a minute deserve to be raped. A freebie, regardless of what you call it, is rape. No one deserves to be sexually assulted, and that is at least what I find most offensive in this whole thing.
To neglect the insensitivity of that statement on a public board where I know we have women who have been sexually assulted is outragous.
Talk about how she deserves to be punished if you must, but pull yourselves above the bar of decency that ever victim of sexual assault deserves.

Just as this man not even for a minute deserved to go to jail. I don't care how the system failed but at the time of the case fi this woman picked him out of a line, fingered him as the rapist, that would make a huge case against the main.
I don't think she owes him a freebie, no no, she owes this man 22 years of life. He became a victim of a crime. He spent over two decades in prison. I wonder what his feelings and emotions are like right now?
On the topic of assault and you don't know how to feel about it, who can say this man might not have been assaulted while spending so many years in prison? The probability is probably pretty high.
In any event, I hope the woman feels beyond horrible. I understand that she couldn't control that she was raped but she could have controlled sending this man to prison for such a long time. He was innocent and she was a victim and her feelings and situation at the time took a large part of life away from another person and that's horrible, beyond horrible....
Life I said, she doesn't owe this man a freebie, she owes him 22 years.
