Yes the accuser herself apparently has told Kotaku in an interview that after the shower incident she proceeded to have a "physical relationship" with this Malka guy and they then broke up around E3. Her story sounds pretty fishy if that's the case. 

I wonder if he will turn around and try to sue her for damages. 

Indeed. The bottom line is, if she had a physical relationship with the guy after he allegedly assaulted her, then it looks very bad on her part.

It's not really a crime to cheat, but putting that aside, her story doesn't really make sense. If she was so offended why would she then willingly proceed to have a relationship for several weeks with said person? IMO it sounds like they hooked up, had a relationship for a few weeks, it went south, and now she's bitter about it.

Yes.

Over a third of women and a fourth of men have been raped, assaulted or harrased on intimate relationships. There can be duress, blackmail and abuse of power involved, it's a very complex issue. Add simply being coerced into a relationship and something like 50% of both sexes have experienced it at least once. Not to mention up to 90% case of sexual abuse are estimated not to be reported even on developed countries, while false accusations ammount to less than 10% on every credible study - less than 1% of all accusations, according to some. All of these statistics are easily and readily available on many papers you can find on the internet.

At the same time it's clear the woman is extremely uncomfortable and afraid after the whole situation while he, who already formerly covered for a pedophile mod and bragged about grabbing another woman's ass, reacted extremely poorly with the obvious results we're seeing so far. People who are calling him out for it aren't doing so on "emotional rhetoric" alone as someone mentioned.

OT - That being said, it seems like he might bring the site back while axing off-topic discussions, so combined with the remaining members and new mods who are a-OK with the reputation of its owner,  NG could be a much different, if somewhat smaller, community on the future.
