(32,886 posts)First, my request was aimed at the other person since they are the ones who claimed that Assange did not materially admit to everything. In fact, he did.
As this link and hundreds more like it show, http://studentactivism.net/2011/07/12/assange-lawyer-concedes/ , what Assanges defense rests in is the contention that yes, he did those things, but statements or actions made by the woman he raped after the fact essentially amounts to consent after the fact.
Assanges attorney goes as far to say that he does not say anything negative about the women and he says that Assange did "disturbing and disrespectful" sexual things to the women.
Assange and his attorney have essentially admitted to everything and the idea of consent after the fact is laughable.
