While he was trying to find friends who could vouch for him, his accuser contacted him via Facebook. She confessed that she had made up the story when he met her in person. She did not sign any form or give permission for the recording of their conversation, so when the confession was presented in court, it was deemed invalid because the recording was made without her consent.
