墨尔本一名男子面临两项强奸罪和一项性侵罪的指控 1，案件涉及2023年3月发生的事件 1。被告已认罪不成立 1，受害人是其前私人助理 1。
在法庭最后陈词中，控方律师马修·费舍尔指出，虽然受害人的证词存在不一致之处，但这些矛盾之处反而增强了其可信度 1。费舍尔表示："如果她真的想编造这一切……她本应能做得更好。本应能做得好得多。" 1 他进一步暗示，若受害人是为了金钱而捏造故事，她应该能构造一个更加完整的叙事 1。
被告未在审判中作证 1，受害人则在非公开法庭进行了作证 1。被告的律师德莫特·丹恩大律师主张相关指控事件从未发生 1。
控方还对一名警官大卫·巴洛的证词提出批评，指其证词"不严谨"和"虚假" 1。案件中还涉及受害人与警方2019年的一起争议——当时曾发生酒驾停车事件 1。
案件目前仍在审理中 1。
A Melbourne man faces two rape charges and one sexual assault charge relating to allegations made in March 2023 1. He has pleaded not guilty 1.
The alleged victim, a former private assistant to the defendant, testified in closed court 1. During closing arguments, the prosecution's counsel Matthew Fisher argued that inconsistencies in her testimony actually strengthened her credibility rather than undermining it 1. Fisher stated: "If she really wanted to make all this up … she could have done a better job. Could have done a lot better" 1, suggesting that if the victim were fabricating allegations for financial gain, she would have constructed a more convincing narrative 1.
The defendant did not take the stand during the trial 1. His legal representative, Dermot Dann KC, contended that the alleged assault never occurred 1.
The case involves disputed history between the alleged victim and police, including a 2019 drink-driving traffic stop incident 1. Prosecutors criticized police officer David Barlow's testimony as "loose" and "untrue" 1.
The trial remains ongoing 1.
