David Jones Case

This past week my issues class performed a mock trial that involved a rape case. The alleged rapist David Jones was accused of raping his girlfriend Susan Williams. David Jones and Susan Williams were freshman at a made up Washington D.C. university called Capitol University. They shared a business class together and started dating. They had an intimate relationship together and had sex. That summer, David got a summer job in Chicago and him and Susan had planned to move there together for the summer. However Susan got a job in D.C. and ended up staying. They broke up because they couldn't see each other. When the next school year came they had no classes together so they kept their distance and saw other people. Then junior year they ended up having a class together and midway through the year they started dating again. She said she didn't want to make the same mistakes as last time so they didn't have sex. Then senior year came around and they went to a party on her birthday. Meanwhile David was doing an economics project with another classmate by the name of Jenny Jackson. They were to act as if they were married and were to create a budget report as a married couple. While at the party David was talking to Jenny and that got Susan jealous. Susan and David decided to go back to Davids apartment and David went into the bathroom to a condom on. They started to make out on his bed and David tried to take off her clothes but she said no. However after she said so she smiled and started kissing him again and leading him on. She tried to get out of the bed at one point and David tried to pull her back and ripped her shirt slightly. However it is not clear if the pull was violent or not. Eventually they had sex. When they were done, Susan got out of bed and looked on David's desk and found a note from Jenny saying, "See you tomorrow, you're a great husband." Clearly it was a joke but Susan stormed out of the room and wouldn't talk to David for days. Anyway they jury ruled David Jones (played my me) to be not guilty. The jury ruled me not guilty after only talking about it for two minutes. Out teacher the great Mr. Kramer told us that out of the 6 years that he had done this activity, not once has Susan Williams ever won the case. Does this say a lot about our society today?
