Hell, she could still quite conceivably win a civil case with the court saying it’s more likely than not that he assaulted her. See Simpson, OJ.
And if she wins the civil case, it means with at least 51% certainty that he did it. In that scenario one could say it is more likely than not that he sexually assaulted her and he was found not guilty in a criminal trial. The not guilty would still be worth the paper it is written on, even in that circumstance.
