No... It's not unusual for the famous person to get off. Not that they aren't guilty.
Also, no I don't support chauvnist rape defenses no matter the cause.
Rape as it is has very low conviction rates. Let alone when it involves celebrities and their mindless fans willing to attack and harrass the victims.
There is a reason why countries try (though fail) to keep these women's identities secret from the public until the trial and why the accused rapist's laywers always leak it to the press.
This ain't got anything to do with wikileaks, and everything to do with feminism and equal rights.
Which is something I take very seriously because very few people do.
