of how could the man who 'raped' me be cleared because he was sleepwalking?

How could the man who 'raped' me be cleared because he was sleepwalking?
A rape victim has hit out at the law after the man accused of attacking her was cleared because he was sleepwalking. Jane McKenna, 33, was asleep at home when a friend's husband, who had been a guest at a barbecue, walked into the bedroom and started having sex with her.

Victim: Jane McKenna has waives her anonymity but chose to pose like this because she does not want her face to become widely recognisable
Jason Jeal, a 37-year-old roofer with no medical history of sleepwalking, admitted sex had taken place. But he was cleared of rape after he insisted he had been asleep and had no idea what he was doing.
