How can we make everybody here on this progressive forum happy? We have competing progressive themes of supporting rape victims v. innocent until proven guilty. This DU fight is getting ugly. I have no idea what happened--I think that it is perfectly plausible that these guys did it and their defense team is essentially spreading rumors and I think it is also perfectly plausible that these guys didn't do it and the DA has f'ed up royally and everyone is rushing to judgment, etc.
Aren't both arguments in reality possible? The woman was raped but the DA is accusing the wrong guy or even guys? This (or something close to it) seems to me to be the most Okham's Razor-friendly explanation. It allows for the nurse's assessment to be accurate and it allows for the ABC report to be valid.
