    @ disc 2 - Just because the lady agreed to spend time with the man and drink whisky with him does not mean it was not rape. Your attitude frightens me, though the police will probably agree with you.

    Rape is a crime whatever the circumstances. But really... What was she thinking ? Stupid people just ask for trouble.

    Ride'em cowboy. I don't know what the woman expected.

    Since cowboy's modus of operandi seems well known and there are no other complaints and she willingly went to him, I'd say it will be considered mutual and rightly so.

    ' Her parents were preparing to come to Thailand with a lawyer'

    That's a waste of time and money.
