Danner, having an affair with the 25 year old woman, was found not guilty of rape but convicted on domestic battery charges after two days of testimony detailing a rocky 3 1/2 year relationship marked by abuse and heated fights. The jury credited the defendant with credibility in part, saying there was not enough proof on the rape count.
