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:
http://www.crikey.com.au/2010/12/02/when-it-comes-to-assange-r-pe-case-the-swedes-are-making-it-up-as-they-go-along/
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."

Sounds like rank sexist "Blaming the victim" stuff to me.
"A guide to getting revenge on exboyfriends"
If she had a guide already to do so... why didn't she go off her playbook?
Clearly "crying rape" wasn't on their, hence why they don't mention it so.
Are you familiar with the psychology of rape?
I mean, you do realize you are reading something directly from his lawyer?
You can see the same things from any accused rapists lawyer.

In what way is what I said sexist? I'm not blaming the victim for the alleged "rape". I'm pointing out behaviors which supposedly happened AFTER the rape and which make this case quite suspicious.
One more problem with the "new evidence came out" idea is that even after the two women sought advice, discussed the stories between them two etc, there would still be new evidence waiting to come out after a few months.
Again, this is not conclusive, but it does get me quite suspicious about all this rape story.
