Well, there's plenty of evidence. I hope they don't settle for a fine. Up to four years in prison would send a clear message to sexual abusers everywhere. People aren't things to be used.

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

I'm confused, afterwards she commented:
"It was a totally spontaneous mutual gesture because of the immense joy that winning a World Cup brings.
"The president and I have a great relationship, his behaviour with all of us has been outstanding and it was a natural gesture of affection and gratitude."
So what has changed now?
Good for Jenni Hermoso.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The complaint comes after prosecutors at the country’s top criminal court said they were investigating the incident – in which Rubiales grabbed Hermoso by the head, pulled her towards him and planted a kiss on her lips – amid concerns that there may be grounds for sexual assault charges.
Her statement followed days of uproar during which Rubiales dismissed critics of the kiss as “idiots and stupid people”, before offering an apology widely seen as half-hearted.
Days later, amid mounting outrage over the kiss as well as Rubiales grabbing his crotch as La Roja won the World Cup, the federation demanded that he resign.
While Rubiales has yet to resign, on Tuesday the federation announced that it had dismissed Jorge Vilda, the controversial coach for the national women’s team.
His position, however, had become untenable as fallout from Rubiales’s actions continued, with 81 footballers refusing to play for the national team’s current leadership and nearly all of his coaching staff resigning.
Vilda defended his decision to applaud Rubiales after the football head lashed out at “fake feminism” and bemoaned what he saw as a “social assassination” during a federation assembly.
The original article contains 617 words, the summary contains 190 words. Saved 69%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
As a Spaniard, and not one who really agrees whith some aspects of modern feminism, I wholeheartedly support applying the law to it's fullest extent.
I wonder what made him think he could get away with something like that!
