The case wasn't about bullying the woman, it's about whether or not he raped her. The bullying is almost irrelevant to the case. So don't get words twisted around and say that he's innocent. No, we assume that he's innocent because he hasn't been proven guilty. Until he actually is proven guilty, then you can't convict him for rape.
I'm not saying he should be convicted of it as they now don't have any one to testify against him. What I'm saying is, he has NOT acted like an innocent person and therefore comes across as guilty.

I under stand that if someone accused you of rape you would be upset but to bully that person in school KNOWING you have to go to trial over the case just screams guilty to me.
