Ralph Carr, a prominent Australian entertainment manager with nearly three decades of experience in the industry, has been found guilty of one count of sexual assault and two counts of rape.[1] The 63-year-old's identity was revealed to the public on Monday following the lifting of a suppression order that had previously kept his name confidential.[1] Carr had claimed the suppression order was necessary for his mental health.[1]
The offences involved a woman in her twenties and occurred between late 2022 and early 2023.[1] Police attended the scene at approximately 3:45 a.m., and a jury reached its guilty verdict after three days of deliberation.[1] Following the conviction, Carr was immediately remanded in custody pending sentencing.[1]
The conviction has prompted high-profile consequences within the entertainment world. Dustin Martin, one of Carr's former clients and a notable figure in the industry, announced the termination of his professional relationship with his ex-manager, stating: "Effective immediately, I have ended my professional relationship with my former manager."[1]
