Please stop posting that he shouldn't have invited her into his bed since that's apparently not what happened... read the OP and links BEFORE commenting. | ||

Would it be cool with you if he murdered her in his sleep due to a condition? You are responsible for your actions! Even if you are asleep! If you do things in your sleep that harm others you are a danger to society and anyone around you should be notified of your condition. Also, that should be no one made up anything. | ||

Edit: Plus whatever evidence they can find... There is usually a lot of evidence to suggest whether sex was consensual or not, bruises, tears in the vaginal wall, etc. It's very difficult to get someone convicted with zero evidence when it really is just one person's word. Innocent until proven guilty applies there. | ||

If a guy with mental issues kills someone, he can't be held accountable for it, that's why he's sent to treatment (or mental hospital) and not to jail. He isn't left at home because he's a danger. However this sexsomniac guy isn't a social danger, so he still can't be held accountable for what he did, since his issues are beyond his will, but doesn't deserve to be locked down in a psychiatric ward. It's not like he's going out and raping women (case in which he'd be a social danger), he's just doing it in his sleep with whoever is sharing his bed. oh he has a condition huh. i have a condition too. my doctor says its best treated with weed. i will let you in on a little secret i have no condition. but i have a doctor that says i do. im the ignorant one? please. maybe when you have lived a bit longer your faith in people will wear out and you can start to see the truth of things in the world. but you are naive and thats cute. hold on to it and the world will seem a much prettier place than it is. | ||

I don't care if his retarded ex wife got used to being groped in her sleep... fucking bullshit. the only thing I wonder is if the girl struggled against this dude.. cause if she just laid there and a guy who was "asleep" had sex with her.. then it wasn't rape. A lot of people do a lot of things while asleep. I have long conversations that I never recall in the morning when woken up in the middle of sleep. | ||

That to me is more important than any of this "Sexsomniac" bullshit. Besides, if he does it literally all the time, surely he would warn the girl/not have her in his own fucking bed? Ridiculous. | ||

This guys described condition seems different than mine cause i can usually remember what happened like a dream. Let me describe what its like so you understand, its like being aware of what you are doing in all senses that you have, sight, touch, etc, but not having any brain processing capabilities. You are just along for the ride that your body is taking you on and you dont have enough awareness to know its wrong etc. I have woken up in the middle of doing it before when my wife has swatted me and its a strange feeling when your reasoning abilities and full thought ability slowly comes in and you realize fully what was just going on and what you were doing. its totally possible to do this stuff without having control over it. This guy must have the condition in spades though cause i would wake up well before someone was thrashing underneath me, usually one swat is all it takes or the act of me moving will wake me up aswell. and obviously you wouldn't have teen girls in the bed with you when you have this condition, almost seems like a set up. | ||

Do some basic research and you'll find that they're in a deep state of unconsciousness, it's not as simple as pinching them lightly on the arm to wake them up. There have been documented cases of this before; obviously you haven't heard what the jury said that convinced them to let a man off a rape charge when they had no personal interest in clearing him. I find the amount of moral ambiguity in this thread astounding. there are some acts that are intrinsically wrong. wrong by the very nature of what it is. there are no excuses for such acts. none. i would put raping 16 year old girls on that list. seems alot of people around here wouldnt. on the bright side on bad days when i look in a mirror and i dont like what i see. i can look at this thread find comfort in the fact that im not bad enough to let a child rapist slide. | ||

And then have my friends and family confirm that I indeed do that often? And yes, this situation is retarded. I know of a least 2 cases where people have been declared "not guilty" after having killed in their sleep. One of them was in Arizona where the man killed his wife, the other was in Toronto where a man drove 20-something miles and killed his parents in law. So yeah, I guess you could make up such a condition... Link to the stories: http://www.lakesidepress.com/pulmonary/Sleep/sleep-murder.htm | ||

Similar to how bipolar disorder involves manic periods in which sex with strangers is common and oftentimes unprotected just do to the mental state of mind. | ||

Next time you wake up in the morning with a girl in your bed that you have no idea how she got there, and you're being charged for rape..yeah, its your own fault. *Sarkasm over* Who really should be charged here is the muppet who told the girl to go sleep in the bed of someone with these issues. | ||
