I phrased myself hastily in my first post. He does have my sympathy because of the unjust rape charge and it's out-of-proportion results.

Understandable, I suppose.
I don't think you're one of them, but there are ladies on this forum who would think the kid had it coming, though. I've had enough problems with relationships without being in a position where I don't feel like I can trust anyone of the fairer sex. Maybe it's not quite as bad for me, since I think pre-marital sex is an affront before God, and thus I won't be engaging it, but even if I'm a perfect gentlemen an accusation would still land me in jail, then a courtroom, and then if I don't prove my innocence, a jail cell (and yes, in this day and time with these accusations you are guilty until proven innocent).
I'm aware that the chance of something like that happening to me is low, but the consequences are so high that I'm not sure that even that very minimal risk is justified. After being accused of something like that your reputation is permanently ruined. Getting a job gets to be much more difficult.
Basically, if I date a girl, I have little choice but to assume that she has it out for me until she can demonstrate otherwise. And even then, you can never quite be 100% sure. It's a shame. I really want to have a family someday, but this makes it all that much more difficult.
