10. Part of Winston's statement

"Winston did submit a lengthy statement during his hearing earlier this month detailing his version of events.

"At some point they will be held accountable, so I have determined that it is in my best interests to exercise my right pursuant to Rule 6C2R-3.004 (6)(d)of the Florida State University Student Code of Conduct and answer questions when experienced lawyers and other experts can assist me in confronting [the accuser's] false accusation and when [the accuser] is subject to the penalty of perjury and other claims for [the accuser] falsely accusing me of rape," Winston said in the statement."

I haven't closely followed the case, but until these cases are handled in or like a regular criminal case, I don't think victims or alleged perps will get real justice.
