| Kasz216 said: No they didn't. One woman decided she had been raped... and the other who thought she had only been molested gave information to the court to support her. Also, I don't think it was after they met? I've read nothing like that. All i've seen is that the second woman reported a rape, while the first gave details of their sexual encounter as testimony for the 2nd. |
I remember reading several times that the women had private discussions before filing their complaints. I will try to find more articles to confirm this, but this is an interesting one that I just found:

A few interesting claims here that are probably fairly easy to verify:
- the second woman "published on the internet a guide on how to get revenge on cheating boyfriends". (doesn't prove anything, but interesting for context I think)
- "she has thrown a party in Assange’s honour at her flat after the “crime” and tweeted to her followers that she is with the “the world’s coolest smartest people, it’s amazing!” (and then tried to delete these tweets)
- "But then neither Arden nor Wilén complained to the police but rather “sought advice”, a technique in Sweden enabling citizens to avoid just punishment for making false complaints. They sought advice together, having collaborated and irrevocably tainted each other’s evidence beforehand. Their SMS texts to each other show a plan to contact the Swedish newspaper Expressen beforehand in order to maximise the damage to Assange."
