Rugby Players Rape Trial

No. Below the belt was later that night.

Brendan Kelly QC was on fire this afternoon.

Reference was also made to prosecution witness Dara Florence who believed she had walked in on a threesome and was invited to stay.

Mr Kelly said: “She walked into the room where, if the prosecution are correct, a rape was taking place times two.

“She was invited to join in. She said ‘no’ and Jackson said ‘are you sure?’.

“To join in a rape?

“Ask yourself this, if (the complainant), as she tells you, was not consenting and Dara had said ‘yes I’d love to’, picture what would the scene be – those on the left not consenting, those on the right consenting.”

He continued: “Is it really the Crown’s case that half the bed would have been consenting and half not?”

He is actually taking the piss out of them and this farce of a case.

Am I missing something here? Is that some type of Rugby innuendo or what?

He is practically guffawing at the ridiculousness of this getting into a court room.

Its actually fascinating to see the medi as reporting of rhis today. Widespread headlines of Toby Hebworths 'throwback to male entitlement ’ comment.
Hardly anything from Kelly.

They clearly didn’t think they were “raping” here, and therefore why wouldn’t they invite another party in… Jackson doesn’t ask the complainant if she’d be OK with another party joining either… Jackson running the show, you want in, you gotta get by him.
Blane McIlroy…“Paddy said it was fine to come in”… the girl was mute according to them the whole time, bar asking for condoms and smiling and beckoning them. So not believable.

You’re making all that up luv

What part?

Blane McIlroy: “Yes, Paddy said it’s fine” Brendan Kelly QC: “That’s not accepted by Paddy Jackson”.

:joy::joy: They’re literally calling each other liars… but yeah they’re credible…

Mr Hedworth told the the jury the men’s stories did not add up and in fact they had “circled the wagons”.

He said: “When we reach the preposterous stage of who was doing what, if you can’t get the stories straight, then you are left with them falling in and out of sleep with their hands entangled in her private parts.
