Han är dömd för sexuellt utnyttjande

I have such anxiety.

Met a man for a couple of months, we met through a mutual friend but in the beginning we only talked online as we live a bit apart. Seen on a couple of occasions for classic dates. He is a true gentleman and I have fallen head over heels for him. We have yet to share a bed or do anything more than kiss and touch each other without clothes (nothing sexual at all!). 

We saw each other this weekend and I asked if he wanted to sleep over at my place. He became a little sad and said he wanted to tell me something difficult. And that I would take time to reflect on whether I wanted to move forward with him.  

10 years ago he was convicted of sexual abuse. He was accused of rape but was not convicted of it. He sent over all the documents etc. so that I could read in peace. He went home with a girl from the pub when he was 19, they were both drunk and had sex. She states that she does not remember any of this and that she did not give consent. The next morning she wakes up and calls the police. He is arrested but released soon after. At the trial, he admits intercourse but denies rape, however, he cannot prove consent, whereupon he is convicted of sexual abuse because she was so intoxicated that she was not judged to be in the full use of her senses. 

After I read all the documents, I called him. I had tons of questions and he answered them all. He says he has only had one relationship and one sexual partner since he was convicted. He is terrified of being accused again, whereupon he renounced casual sex completely and only had it in the relationship he was in. But it's only with one person. 

He still maintains his innocence but admits that it was negligent on his part and that he will never put himself in such a situation again, but he wants to be open about what he went through but understands if I choose to finish what we started as the sentence involves certain limitations. Among other things, I have told him that I want to travel to the USA for a long vacation (12 months) in the future. He was refused a visa to the USA for a work trip due to a previous conviction.

I actually don't know what to think or do. He is absolutely fantastic but of course I get worried. I also don't dare to tell anyone close to me as I don't want him to "be judged" by my family or friends if we choose to continue seeing each other. 

I could buy this if he had a treatment. Admit that you made a mistake and stop drinking alcohol. If you behave in this way when you are drunk, you should understand that you have used up your right to drink. Now he has not come to these realizations but has just stayed away which does not lead to development or change. Joining AA and getting support to change his behavior and understand that this woman didn't want to get laid is important for him to understand. He doesn't do this.
