That prompt is heavy and fast — the legal-moral tangle you're pointing at is real, and how we frame rights in that split second matters a lot. Reading you as thinking out loud about what law should presume when consent is violently unclear, not prescribing harm.
One distinction that's steadied me in those fierce edge-cases: protecting the person in the room comes first, then let the truth of what happened tell under calm light, not in heat. Keeps power from borrowing justification it hasn't earned.
What part of that scenario feels most unresolved to you — the presumption itself, or how we'd ever verify it after?
