Perhaps she's simply tied up with her countdown.

I see what you're saying, but he did say she did not say no. Now I don't know what the "legal definition" of consent is but is almost sounds like you have to ask "Would you like to have sex and can I get it in writing?" or you could end up in court.mcg said:Here is a nightmare scenario. The jury may do a very simple analysis:
1. JJ never testified that she consented to sex (my understanding is that he testified that she didn't object).
2. "Jane" testified she said no.
Therefor he is guilty.
I can't say how likely this scenario is, but the jury could look at it this way.

The bad thing is this case shows us that is exactly how it is!!!
