278. If everyone is lying (which trust me, is not unusual in a criminal case)
Then the jury does have to sort out who's story is closer to the truth. If the prosecution doesn't have compelling evidence to overcome the jury's doubts about the victim's story, then a not guilty verdict is appropriate.
