At this point, to my knowledge (admittedly not having read too much about this):
They are only allegations.
The allegations came via civil court not a court of law.
The allegations came 12+ months after the events.
It would seem those criteria are the basis for much of the support for Watson - despite the difference in the number of allegations - and maybe that would be enough for many on this board to find a way to root for this kid.
Incredible. Not exactly apples to apples as you're implying. We're talking about a gang rape of a minor, in which there's a recorded phone call set up by the San Diego police where Araiza admitted having chlamydia and encouraged her to get tested for STD's. He has not denied having sex with the minor, he only denied having sex with her while she was intoxicated. Why would he even be talking with a minor on the phone?
