Conor McGregor is facing a civil assault claim in Dublin, where a woman accuses him of sexual assault. The jury heard that the woman had a tampon embedded in her vagina after the alleged incident in December 2018. McGregor denies the allegations, claiming the encounter was consensual. The plaintiff's lawyer described her as traumatized and in pain after the incident, which occurred at a hotel penthouse. The trial, which began on November 5, 2024, is expected to last two weeks. The case has been ongoing since it was first filed in 2021, with multiple delays.
