Any woman can get raped, however many lies they might have told in their life. It might affect their credibility in court, but that's a different matter. Tyat's what I meant by "probably guilty", but without the evidence that would justify a conviction." As with OJ Simpson.

The threat of rape by wealthy employers has always been there for maids. Read the libretto of The Marriage of Figaro. It's not a matter of being reluctant to pay, but of power and convenience. Often enough the men involved have been quite happy enough to offer to pay afterwards. It's still rape.
