4 October 2022
The trial of Bruce Lehrman begins in the Australian Capital Territory. Brittany Higgins took the stand and, between tears, stated that she had a "strange adversarial relationship" with Bruce Lehrman.[1] Text messages and CCTV footage have been presented to the court.[2] A total of 47 witnesses will present evidence during the trial that is expected to take 4-6 weeks.[3]
The defence pointed out inconsistencies between Higgins' account of events and that of a female security guard that found her alone in an office in Parliament House.[4]
5 October 2022
Brittany Higgins again took the stand during the second day of the trial. Higgins admitted that she did not seek medical attention despite later claiming to have been raped by Bruce Lehrman. Higgins stated that she took a pregnancy test two weeks after the she and Bruce Lehrman went to parliament house together.[5]
Higgins claims that earlier in the evening Bruce Lehrman had tried to kiss her but that she had rebuffed him.[6]
Texts between Higgins and her ex-boyfriend Ben Dillaway were tendered to the court. The mainstream media has attempted to imply that this was a discussion about the alleged rape but the context seems to better fit the security breach.[7]
6 October 2022
Higgins claimed that she kept the dress she had worn during the alleged rape under her bed for six months. The court was then shown a photograph of her wearing it a few weeks later.[8]
7 October 2022
Higgins admits deleting texts relevant to the police investigation before providing her phone to police.[9]
Higgins also stated that she "made a mistake" in her testimony when she said she put the dress in a plastic bag and put it under her bed for six months.[10]
