Im not sure about Muer, but Winston ended up raping her because he was under the influence of the scorpion poison and that flower field he thought she was a hallucination because he was having them. Still doesn't excuse it but there more to it than just him being high, and he was immediately remorseful once he came to his senses.
Someone tried to correct me previously in the comments and say Muir ain't rape her and that Winston didn't either. Clearly stated that he "forced to mate with her" and Winston did too. I don't like how SA was something nonchalantly added to the story. It's disgusting.
