Then how did he have an affair?

Is power itself not enough to coerce someone, you're saying it has to be physical coercion? That would undo a lot of what we know about sexual assault.

I'm certainly not saying he did it, but "he's paralyzed" is not a good enough defense.

Its not a defense its a line of inquiry. Why do you think people asking what he's accused of are defending him? That doesn't make sense.
