The accused was charged with sexually assaulting the complainant after a social gathering.
The accused admitted to intentional sexual intercourse but claimed the complainant consented and initiated the encounter.
The court rejected the accused's evidence, finding his post-incident conduct—including an apology left on the complainant's voicemail and his unquestioning compliance with being ejected from the home—inconsistent with his claim of a consensual encounter.
The court admitted the complainant's immediate post-incident declarations under the res gestae doctrine and accepted her evidence that she verbally and physically resisted the accused.
The accused was found guilty.
