It's too bad that there isn't a third option like in Scotland (I think?) "Not Proven". This, IMO, is what OJ would have gotten.

Back to the matter at hand: the accuser of Assange was tainted by what she said to others, unfortunately. The chain of custody of the rape kit had best be very tight, to most effectively lock up the case against the doctor.

LH, I see your point, how, much like in the corporate or military world, there is a tendency to rush to judgment and presume guilt. If someone had a grudge against a senior NCO or officer in the military; or a supervisor in the corporate world, this provides disproportionally-powerful ammunition.
