Filipino court overturns US Marine rape conviction

By TERESA CEROJANO, Associated Press Writer Teresa Cerojano, Associated Press Writer – 48 mins ago

MANILA, Philippines – A Philippine appeals court overturned the 2006 rape conviction of a U.S. Marine and ordered his immediate release Thursday, setting off condemnations from activists.

A suburban Manila court convicted Lance Cpl. Daniel Smith of raping a Filipino woman in the company of fellow Marines at the former U.S. Subic Bay Naval base three years ago and sentenced him to life in prison. The case has become a rallying point for anti-American protests in the country.

The Philippine Court of Appeals overturned the ruling, indicating the sexual act was consensual.
