Conor McGregor’s Sexual Assault Case: Jury Urged to Examine Evidence Objectively
In the ongoing trial of MMA fighter Conor McGregor, a lawyer representing him urged the jury to focus on evidence rather than personal biases against McGregor. Nikita Hand is suing McGregor and his friend James Lawrence over allegations of rape in a Dublin hotel in December 2018. Both defendants deny the charges and assert that the encounter was consensual. The case hinges on the examination of CCTV footage and text messages as the jury prepares to deliberate.
