Whatever the outcome of the other case, it was at least fully investigated and allowed to go through the justice system.

Something Assange has attempted to thwart at every step, blaming everybody but himself for his predicament.

It was not fully investigated at all since the prosecutor decided by himself the case was not worth prosecuting. That prosecutor has now been dismissed from the case which leaves an opening for a new procedure to be started. As the suspects - which they still are, no matter what this prosecutor says - have not been prosecuted yet there is still an opportunity for justice to be served. I can only hope this will happen as this case has put a severe dent in the trust people have in the justice department - let alone the trust the rape victim has.
