Do I think he's a "rapist"? If the whole thing occurred as discussed in court then yes, of course.
My issue is that it appears not all relevant evidence was seen in court. If at his appeal it's all presented and they still find nothing wrong with the conviction then he will forever be a rapist.

My view is this, currently he is a convicted rapist, if his next appeal is successful, he should be able to continue his career.
The bit I really struggle with is that his girlfriend and her family are doing everything they can to protest his innocence and fast track his appeal, when they all know what happened in that room wether it was rape or not.
Why the hell would you do that, or is part of his appeal that he didn't have sex with her at all?
