This is anecdotal. Please give me a regulation, a statute, or a citation to a law review or encyclopedia that supports your argument.

If this man was accused of raping a mentally disabled girl, who couldn't realistically testify to the facts herself, who knows what kind of bending of evidentiary rules they allowed. Then again, I don't have the whole picture, now do I? And since the one standing accused was your friend, I can hardly expect to get an unbiased account from you. I wouldn't entirely trust my own flesh and blood, given the same situation, let alone a complete stranger on a messageboard.
Again, give me some information I can trust, and I'm perfectly willing to believe you.
