I pretty sure you think this is some kind of "gotcha" but this 13 year old story is always reposted without names, dates or anything else that would make it easy to look up (or that he took a plea deal).

Here is the snopes article that's also years old and has yet another version, still deliberately stripped of context.

But I'm sure they can milk another decade of "there is a false rape accusation epidemic" out of the same handful of cases.
