A former Oxford University medical student hugged his family after he was cleared of raping a woman who was 'eight or nine out of 10 drunk' and passed out at a party.
His family sobbed in relief from the public gallery and the shocked 27-year-old, wearing a striped shirt, was embraced by members of his emotional family and friends, all keen for hugs of congratulation.
The jury was told that the alleged rape victim had posted on a Facebook group, naming Mr McPaul as her rapist to almost 3,000 members, most of whom were anonymous strangers she did not know.
'I find it terrifying that he is going to be a doctor. He thinks it is okay to have sex with someone who is drunk/asleep, without a condom as well!'

Well now. If ever I’m on trial for raping a woman who is ‘eight or nine out of 10 drunk’ and passed out at a party....
I’ll be sure to wear a striped shirt.
Sounds like it would have been acceptable with a condom, too.
Sorry, read your post too fast. :-)
He volunteered at a feminist group teaching males about consent.
That is rich.
Never, ever trust a male feminist. They are all closet rapist or pedos.
Clue to the clueless: sex is only fun when it is mutual.
It appears the jury thought it was consensual.
Rape isn’t about fun sex.
Yeah, every guy there was stone cold sober, just waiting for some drunk girl to pass out so he could rape her. Not excusing real rape, but if everyone who was drunk when they had sex with an equally drunk partner was prosecuted, half the male population under 40 years old would be in prison.
"Sex is only fun when it is consensual"
Too bad we cant seem to jail the women that have sex with a drunk man
He’s just laughed-at and told to consider it a “favor”.
Women are apparently just dumb people that cant be expected to ever do anything but be a victim.
And women think they're treated unfairly.
The man has been cleared, and yet the publication had to toss in the woman's condition AGAIN!
In the eyes of the laws of that region, the man has been declared innocent. It doesn't make one bit of difference at this point what the woman's condition was at the time.
This is an attempt to slander the man, stigmatize him no matter what.
It's wrong.
No, he was not declared innocent, just not guilty.
Hell, half the male population under 70 more likely.
While that may be a good point to you, it means the same thing to me.
He was not found guilty. He is therefore innocent.
By his own admission, he has is guilty of having sex with her when she was far too blotto to object. That’s rape. Jury be damned.
I dont even trust faggots, nevertheless soyboy woke limp-wrist “male” leftards. And it wouldnt even bother me the slightest if this puke went to jail or not..
I don’t approve of that, but the man has been acquitted.
He will not have a rape on his record. Hew will not have to register as a sex offender. He won’t have to divulge this information when applying for a job.
I don’t know what the jury reviewed that caused them to come to this conclusion, but it’s obviously more than you and I are privy to.
