Conor McGregor appears in Dublin court to face civil sexual assault claim

mirror.co.uk — November 5, 2024 at 03:01 PM UTC

UFC fighter Conor McGregor appeared in a Dublin court to face a civil sexual assault claim from a woman who alleges he assaulted her in 2018. The judge described the allegation as McGregor "in effect, raped her." A jury has been empaneled to determine the facts of the case, which is not criminal but civil. The judge instructed jurors to avoid outside opinions and focus solely on the evidence presented in court. The trial is expected to last two weeks. McGregor and co-defendant James Lawrence deny the allegations, which were first filed in 2021 and have faced multiple delays.
