There are some real problems in this case. Such as the 16-year old victim drinking at the defendant's apartment. That however, should be easily overcome. It doesn't mean the victim wanted, nor consented, to being raped.What will they do regarding the girlfriend of the defendant who allegedly held the victim down and covered her mouth?
Expect the defense to say she did it to avoid being beaten by the boyfriend.
