Not sure if it's flaw or design, following some high profile cases things like what underwear the victim was wearing at the time..what positions she has had sex in previously and other stuff like that is used as 'evidence' that no rape took place. The system is utterly disgusting for rape/sexual assault cases and it's well known but nothing changes.

I think legal systems in all countries are still playing catchup when it comes to women who are raped. We've moved forward from a charge of rape being a property crime against the raped woman's husband... but we haven't moved as far as we should. I think this woman was very brave to bring this suit, especially as Conor McGregor has been empowered to feel untouchable. I hope on appeal she's awarded everything he owns.

Absolutely. And still so many people on social media say she's lying as well. The intimidation she's endured bringing this to court wouldn't be worth it imo unless it was true. He's a scumbag but he's got even scummier "friends" poor woman

I always think he comes across as an animal. Fighters usually have a bit of control, don't they? A bit of humility? He just seems like scum to me. And it's hardly surprising that this woman is having people doubt her, don't people always doubt the victim? I think she's an example to us all. You're right, what was in this for her? She risked her privacy and her whole reputation for what? Some money she hasn't got yet, and might never get? She's a bloody hero.

And her safety as well. What also amazes me is how his g/f is still standing by him. They're not married but they have 4 children together so it's not like she'd be left penniless if they split up

Nikita Hand, who won civil case against Conor McGregor, had to leave home after break-in by masked men…

The Dublin woman who won €248,603 in damages from mixed martial arts fighter Conor McGregor in a rape civil action had to move from her home after a group of men in balaclavas broke into her house and stabbed her partner in June.

Details of the break-in and attack were disclosed early in the High Court civil action that Nikita Hand took against McGregor, claiming that he raped her in a Dublin hotel in December 2018.

The break-in could not be reported at the time as it was disclosed in court in the absence of the jury.

The Irish Times understands that the attack remains under investigation by the Garda.

Jurors heard during the trial that Ms Hand was claiming for the costs of relocating and buying a house outside the Drimnagh area, but they did not learn the reasons for this claim during the trial.

[ Conor McGregor to pay almost €250,000 damages to Nikita Hand after jury finds he assaulted her in Dublin hotelOpens in new window ]

During the trial, there was a brief reference by Ms Hand’s doctor, Frank Clarke, who testified that she moved away from the area because of “something that happened”.

The lawyer for Ms Hand, Ray Boland SC, told the court on the first day of the trial, in the absence of the jury, that on the night of June 14th, 2024, Ms Hand’s home was “invaded” by a group of masked men who burst into her bedroom, but were “put off” by her partner who suffered stab wounds.

Mr Boland said her side were not saying that Mr McGregor had anything to do with the incident, but that it was “a targeted attack and arose from supporters of him”, and related to Ms Hand’s claim she had to move from the Drimnagh area as a result of her case against him.


Remy Farrell SC, for Mr McGregor, said the claim of entitlement to special damages over having to move house was “novel”. It seemed Ms Hand was acknowledging the incident in June had nothing to do with his client and it was “extraordinary to try to smuggle such a claim into the case”.

[ Nikita Hand feels ‘vindicated’ after ‘nightmare’ civil trial for assault against Conor McGregorOpens in new window ]

Mr Justice Alexander Owens said the matter was “completely and utterly irrelevant” and should not be put to the jury.

In evidence during the High Court case, Ms Hand expressed unease about continuing to live in Drimnagh and that she no longer lived in a house in the south Dublin suburb, valued at €430,000, which she bought with her former partner before the assault.

…I didn’t realise he was in the series…(…or was aware of the series…)…but I imagine any potential ‘dream of Hollywood’ Will close down to him pretty quickly now as his hoped career begins to distance itself…

Good. About time he started facing some actual consequences, he thinks he's untouchable

…(..I’m thinking…)…that he’s going to be very touched if movies was part of his plan to bring in those dollars…it’s a very quick distancing move …although the civil case might have felt like ‘small money’ for him, I think that it may ring very deeply into his dollar pockets….
