Rape, or Rape-Rape?

From the Annals of Justice -- File: We'll always have Jerusalem

A Palestinian man has been convicted of rape after having consensual sex with a woman who had believed him to be a fellow Jew.
Sabbar Kashur, 30, was sentenced to 18 months in prison on Monday after the court ruled that he was guilty of rape by deception*. According to the complaint filed by the woman with the Jerusalem district court, the two met in downtown Jerusalem in September 2008 where Kashur, an Arab from East Jerusalem, introduced himself as a Jewish bachelor seeking a serious relationship. The two then had consensual sex in a nearby building before Kashur left.

Yeah, rape is no laughing matter, still:

* Rape by deception: What's the statute of limitations on stuff like this?
I think I've been abused a time or two myself, surrounded by liars as I get sometimes.
