Why do you believe Copperfield didn’t do it?
They stated, "Every year since 1989, in about 25 percent of the sexual assault cases referred to the FBI where results could be obtained, the primary suspect has been excluded by forensic DNA testing. Specifically, FBI officials report that out of roughly 10,000 sexual assault cases since 1989, about 2,000 tests have been inconclusive, about 2,000 tests have excluded the primary suspect, and about 6,000 have "matched" or included the primary suspect."
The authors continued, "these percentages have remained constant for 7 years, and the National Institute of Justice's informal survey of private laboratories reveals a strikingly similar 26 percent exclusion rate."
If the foregoing results can be extrapolated, then the rate of false reports is roughly between 20 (if DNA excludes an accused) to 40 percent (if inconclusive DNA is added). The relatively low estimate of 25 to 26 percent is probably accurate, especially since it is supported by other sources.

He didn't really do it. It was an illusion.
About 50% of rape accusations eventually turn out to be false by the accusers own admission. Rape has the highest false accusation rate of any crime. The accused should almost always be given the benefit of the doubt and be treated as innocent until proven otherwise.

But I suppose it could happen. Good looking, successful guys have been known to do stupid things.
