Jury sworn in for civil sexual assault case against Conor McGregor in Dublin
A jury has been sworn in at the High Court in Dublin for a civil case against Conor McGregor and another man, accused of sexually assaulting a woman in December 2018. The case is focused on whether the alleged assault occurred, not on criminal charges. Justice Alexander Owens instructed the jury to base their decision solely on evidence presented in court. He emphasized that this is a civil action for damages, not a criminal trial, and warned jurors against conducting independent research. The trial is expected to last about two weeks. McGregor attended the court wearing a white shirt and blue suit.
