Completely and utterly damning. He's a rapist. I hope an investigation and conviction follows this reporting. Also maybe now's the time to codify that 16 year olds shouldn't be fair game for 30 year old men.

"He's a rapist."

If I wrote an article about you with an accusation of rape, would that also make you a rapist? Is that the standard of proof required?

It depends, does your article reference a verified report from a rape crisis centre and a text apologising for the rape from the rapist?

With several accusations of rape, from different people describing very similar circumstances, echoing his 'comedy', with one receiving apologies from a man who heard her screaming as the assault was occurring and was too afraid to intervene.

Your knee-jerk apologism for this slimy predator reflects very badly on you. You can't even be bothered to research the accusations you're dismissing. Take a good look at yourself, it is not too late to change.
