I’m not saying that’s necessarily the case here. Clearly there’s a big question around duress. But I imagine many hundreds or thousands of women have made statements of consent on video without being coerced.

I would guess most of those consent videos are being made before the acts and most likely pertaining to a one on one situation. I think it's pretty different from this case.
