It would be nice if we had a clear answer, but even if conclusions were reached in court there will always be questions hanging over this one.
Bullshit.
You have to prove he did not use a condom (IE a positive claim).
Lack of evidence in a court of law is just that -- lack of evidence.
To proceed further, the prosecution must provide alternative compelling evidence or even more compelling arguments. This runs afoul of the defense's increasing case of procedural and legal malpractice.
The prosecution has submitted evidence that has yet to be determined to be false under the eyes of the Law.
However, the expert witnesses called forth by Assange's squad, if not suitably countered, can indeed get this evidence declared as a falsehood.
Perjury may have (likely) been committed by the prosecution.
Slave to the Patriarchy no more
