Yes all were drunk, but that has nothing to do with it.
She was drunk but conscious when she had sex with his mate. That was consensual. Witnesses (Kebab shop, taxi driver) said that she was drunk but conscious when she entered the hotel.
The mate then texts Evans and invites him over, plus two others to film it. The judge and jury clearly believed she was not conscious by the time Evans turned up and that she had no recollection. That's rape.
They didn't believe his story that she was conscious and gave consent, and he can't prove it. His mate was lucky not to be prosecuted for aiding and abetting a rape.
Having sex with someone, however drunk you are, doesn't also give consent to all his mates or anyone else that happens to pass by.
