waking up with sex isnt the same as unconscious sex. and its apparent from the description in the article that it was consensual

[ChrisSD]

The allegation is there was no consent. From the arrest warrant:

> 4. Rape

> On 17 August 2010, in the home of the injured party [SW] in Enkoping, Assange deliberately consummated sexual intercourse with her by improperly exploiting that she, due to sleep was in a helpless state.

sure he s accused of it. not the worst form of rape but still rape accusation. he should under normal circumstances go to court. but obviously the case is a part of a much bigger tangle here

[sammex]

it is absolutely rape.
