I don't have anything useful to add, except that it seems entirely wrong to have taken that tone with you. You did everything that seemed reasonable including pre-vetting your material, and ... seriously, they took a report from someone who WASN'T in the ROOM about who said what? I suspect that the mere hint that you said something about rape (instead of another student) inspired that tone, but it never should have started that way, given that it came from someone not in the room, and someone who WAS in the room said otherwise.
That just doesn't seem very professional to me, and to come at you with the tone that he did rather than starting out by saying something more like, "You didn't file an incident report, but it turned into an issue; can you tell me what happened, please?" ...augh. Seriously, he should have gotten your impression of things before coming at you. Not just to let you defend yourself, but to get a clear impression of what you remembered before he tainted it with what others told him / what he knew / what happened after.
It would serve him right if you do start filing an incident report every time a student so much as cries, never mind asks to leave the room. I wonder how many more incident reports he'd have to read. :P
