IMO this video does not prove this particular guy was innocent.

Unfortunately what this video did was create reasonable doubt in the minds of a jury, and lacking any other evidence to back up the accuser's case, the law can only come up with one conclusion: not guilty.
If USC expels this guy, he's gonna sue.
One thing that's not gonna happen is convicting this woman of a malicious false rape accusation. There needs to be reasonably high standards for that and this case wouldn't qualify.
In any case this video should have been thrown out of court.

He may very well be innocent, or she may have changed her mind somewhere along the way. This video doesn't preclude the latter.Arman Premjee, 20, was accused by an unnamed female USC student of raping her in her dorm on April 1. Premjee met the unidentified 19-year-old at Banditos Taco & Tequila in Los Angeles earlier that same night.
Eventually, the two left Banditos together, with a female friend of the accuser in tow. Security camera footage from inside and outside the nightclub shows his accuser repeatedly taking Premjee by the hand and dragging him around as he plays on his phone. At one point she kisses him. In another instance, she makes the widely-understood gesture for sex–a finger going into a hole made by the opposite hand–at her friend while Premjee’s back is turned.
Additional security camera footage from the woman’s dormitory shows her signing Premjee in under the watch of a security guard in a well-lit lobby.
In May, prosecutors charged Premjee with rape. They argued that his alleged victim was too drunk to consent. He faced 10 years in prison but consistently maintained his innocence.
