Just because a woman gets drunk & goes back to a hotel room .. it does NOT give a man the right to rape her and badly beat her .. mc Gregor is disgusting and held accountable for his actions … Mrs hand had the bravery and strength to step forward and speak out … fair okay to her and right verdict was reached ..👏👏
@ yup l totally agree but sadly that’s never going to happen in such a high profiled case like this , only good thing that came out was that mc Gregor was found guilty .. she was heard & believed which for a rape victim is one of the scariest things ..
Thanks for this commentary Terry. Really well presented and analysed. I am sorry to say I know a woman, staunch Catholic and with a law degree, who simply makes disparaging remarks about the victim as if the crime is irrelevant. I am at a loss to understand this cold, uncaring attitude, especially coming from a woman.
Conor didn't just r*pe that woman but brutalised her. This is truly sickening. Sick. Sick. Sick. And it's the woman's consent to do as she please, her cheating on her boyfriend has nothing to do with this, her agreeing to come to the room does not mean she consented for sex.
Terry, you seem to be studiously avoiding replying to any comments pointing out the unfairness of having a jury loaded with women in a case like this. Nothing to say?
Possibly can't address that because everyone is equal under the law. If everyone is equal, then I'd imagine you can't go taking issue with the gender of the jury members without implying that men and women are not equal. If they're equal, then they should be interchangeable. Just guessing. It's an interesting question.

It was investigated. I'm sure with the person involved, 'no stone was left unturned'. Even with all of the medical evidence that may have swayed the jury in the civil case, the DPP still didn't bring a case.
What factors in this case would have encouraged the DPP not to go ahead with a criminal prosecution? We have heard that there was not enough evidence but what would of decided the final decision to direct towards Civil proceedings. From todays result, the jury have ruled in Nakita's favor, makes no sense that DPP could not see what the jury seen. Probably a stupid question.
It makes perfect sense. The jury convicted Mcgregor of being a shit not a criminal. They seem to have used their opinions rather than the clear facts and witness evidence.
@@evanburgess8428 It has now been reported that the woman who brought the case had to move house earlier this year because her home was invaded by men in balaclavas who stabbed her partner. (ban on it being reported until today). What a co in cid ence. WOW
@huzcer well, let's be honest, she was hardly mixing in the best of circles was she? I think personally the evidence suggests she lost her house due to breaking up with her then partner for him thinking she'd probably cheated (she was lying to him via text the whole time she was claiming she would have been distressed). I think a far more likely story is she went out for two days on the trot, he partner was not very happy with her and somehow she got some bruises, had to say it was rape as she was losing her house and perhaps had custody battle ahead, then had to stick with the story out of desperation and pride. The jury was utterly innapropriate. I have no idea about her "home invasion" but it all sounds quite fishy.
Clearly Mr Lawrence was put up to take the fall by McGregor. The behaviour of McGregor as amplified by his crass behaviour over the year's is par for the course. His ignorant and racist comments to and about opponent's. We have the sucker punching of an innocent Man in a Dublin pub. The wreckless driving, putting everyone at risk on the road. He is an embarrassment to this Country. The sad thing is that we have many young people who look up to this entitled thug. I remember the old days when we had real Irish sporting heroes. John Tracy, Eamon Coughlan, John Giles Ron Delaney. Sean Kelly, Cristy Ring, Mick Mackey, Sonia O’Sullivan. These were great Irish sports people to be admired and respected. McGregor is, on the other hand, an insult to all these people, and indeed what it means to be Irish. We are much much better than the worst of us, and McGregor is the worst of us.
Thank you Terry for the analyisis of the verdict. The jury spent a long time deliberating on this case and they are the only ones who had to pay full attention to every detail besides the judge and senior counsel of both paries. I agree with your analysis of the verdict. I believe the jury performed their duties admirably and all must accept this verdict as a just application of the law. It is wrong to jump to conclusions without countenance to the full facts. Hence many of those who commented on your forum here jumped to conclusions without objective perspective of all the facts wherein they were expressing their subjective thinking beliefs and attitudes. Many concluded the plaintif put herself in harms way hence deserves what she got. But believing that she got what she deserves is morally wrong. If someone puts themselves in the way of harm this does not mean another can execute harm to that person. If someone puts themselves in the way of harm they are making themselves vulnerable where it is the duty and responsibility of those in the presence of vulnerability not to harm that person rather make sure to protect that person. I believe the jury was of a final mind of consensus that they distilled all to that of the plaintiffs vulnerability and the defendant took advantage of this hence causing the plaintiff harm and by that assaulted the plaintiff. This is my personal opinion.
Well then his wife is in some way also complicit. She had a choice, she chose money, prestige and status over being a good role daughter for her children. She knew what Conor was getting up to
Hard to be disappointed in someone you have such low expectations of but - ye - more power to Nikita for her determination and courage. Hard as well not to feel bad for Dee and Conor's children. All the money in the world but something they'll never replace.
PDiddy parties were full of raped women walking/talking without knowledge of a rape having occurred. Patchy memories later along with bruising. After Mcgregor left to return home his security guard called up hotel staff to remove glasses from the room to be cleaned, asked in court if he always does a clean up after a Mcgregor party he said no, just that time. Strange.
@@John_Wood_ If you followed the case, which you clearly haven't, you would be aware of expert testimony detailing the timeline of bruising, bruises come to the surface over the following days, try be informed before commenting.
@paulr7028 no idea about that, but there was clearly no evidence linking him to her bruises apart from matrons thinking people who do mma and have tattoos are dangerous. This jury was completely inappropriate, a key claim from the accusing party "McGregor's friend claimed to have had sex twice in an hour. That is clearly impossible, check your experience of life and common sense." What? It is hard to believe there is anyone out there who thinks it isn't possible for a man to have sex twice in an hour. This is really a "what would Grandma think if she heard this" moment. Stick 6 men between 20 and 40 on this jury and a completely different outcome.

Do you think if this was made to a criminal trial originally. Would you think the medical evidence and the professional opinions would have got the conviction? And in these type of cases, do you feel a jury or a judge would be better in getting the correct verdict.
That not what the word liable means. It means that the party who has committed the wrong is liable (responsible) for committing the wrong and must now give compensation to the wronged party.
Why not? There is no gag order on him he still believes or knows he is innocent. I think this can be appealed on a number of grounds especially the medical evidence. The conveniently deleted photos. The timing of the bruises. The friend’s evidence was shunted aside, as was the inconvenient video evidence. Jury selection was weighted against him and in my opinion the judge was not impartial. There should have been a gag order on reporting during the trial I was seeing daily, horrendously biased reporting in the tabloids calling him a “monster” etc this while the jury had not even made up their minds? It was made up for them.
Cash cash cash . Crocodile tears is what I seen on the news . Sure if he was found guilty in civil court would it not go to a higher court and send him to jail . Handy money is what I reckon. My opinion .

I find the discussion around morality is misogynistic. McGregor's morality is not being judged. Why? In McGorry's summing up he refers to 'claims' and 'alleged' here and I thought once the jury has declared him guilty we can drop those.
Terry that's a great analysis. But consider the medical evidence versus the CCTV evidence. I understand she was on video kissing and hug James L after the reported assault, right? If so, was this enough to reduce the probability of the assault/rape? Love to hear your comments on this
He should be delighted, these so called celebrities should have to behave within the norms of society….this is not his first time before the courts…for driving offences intimidation etc….

@mg5672 You know the boyfriend was stabbed by one of McGregors fans yeah? And her house was broken into? And the last woman who brought charges against McGregor had her car burnt out and house almost burned down? Common sense tells you McGregor is a dangerous criminal.
Just because a woman gets drunk & goes back to a hotel room .. it does NOT give a man the right to rape her and badly beat her .. mc Gregor is disgusting and held accountable for his actions … Mrs hand had the bravery and strength to step forward and speak out … fair okay to her and right verdict was reached ..👏👏
Read Danielle Kealey's testimony. She's the only witness here. Where did Ms Hand get the money to incur €1.5m in costs?
@Zer0JusTice-qih8bc if you say so😊
@ yup l totally agree but sadly that’s never going to happen in such a high profiled case like this , only good thing that came out was that mc Gregor was found guilty .. she was heard & believed which for a rape victim is one of the scariest things ..

Thanks for this commentary Terry. Really well presented and analysed. I am sorry to say I know a woman, staunch Catholic and with a law degree, who simply makes disparaging remarks about the victim as if the crime is irrelevant. I am at a loss to understand this cold, uncaring attitude, especially coming from a woman.
Sorry to say it, but my staunch Catholic mother is just like that. Women can be misogynistic, too, sadly. I don't really get it, either.
Conor didn't just r*pe that woman but brutalised her.
This is truly sickening. Sick. Sick. Sick.
And it's the woman's consent to do as she please, her cheating on her boyfriend has nothing to do with this, her agreeing to come to the room does not mean she consented for sex.
Does civil equal to criminal, councilor? Why didn't the DDP pursue the case? Are the Garda corrupt?

Terry, you seem to be studiously avoiding replying to any comments pointing out the unfairness of having a jury loaded with women in a case like this. Nothing to say?
Possibly can't address that because everyone is equal under the law. If everyone is equal, then I'd imagine you can't go taking issue with the gender of the jury members without implying that men and women are not equal. If they're equal, then they should be interchangeable.
Just guessing. It's an interesting question.

What factors in this case would have encouraged the DPP not to go ahead with a criminal prosecution? We have heard that there was not enough evidence but what would of decided the final decision to direct towards Civil proceedings. From todays result, the jury have ruled in Nakita's favor, makes no sense that DPP could not see what the jury seen. Probably a stupid question.
The standard of proof.
It makes perfect sense. The jury convicted Mcgregor of being a shit not a criminal. They seem to have used their opinions rather than the clear facts and witness evidence.
@@evanburgess8428 It has now been reported that the woman who brought the case had to move house earlier this year because her home was invaded by men in balaclavas who stabbed her partner. (ban on it being reported until today). What a co in cid ence. WOW
@huzcer well, let's be honest, she was hardly mixing in the best of circles was she? I think personally the evidence suggests she lost her house due to breaking up with her then partner for him thinking she'd probably cheated (she was lying to him via text the whole time she was claiming she would have been distressed). I think a far more likely story is she went out for two days on the trot, he partner was not very happy with her and somehow she got some bruises, had to say it was rape as she was losing her house and perhaps had custody battle ahead, then had to stick with the story out of desperation and pride.
The jury was utterly innapropriate.
I have no idea about her "home invasion" but it all sounds quite fishy.
@@evanburgess8428I would trust a Jury Member any day over a keyboard know it all
Well said!
Clearly Mr Lawrence was put up to take the fall by McGregor.
The behaviour of McGregor as amplified by his crass behaviour over the year's is par for the course.
His ignorant and racist comments to and about opponent's.
We have the sucker punching of an innocent Man in a Dublin pub.
The wreckless driving, putting everyone at risk on the road.
He is an embarrassment to this Country.
The sad thing is that we have many young people who look up to this entitled thug.
I remember the old days when we had real Irish sporting heroes.
John Tracy, Eamon Coughlan, John Giles Ron Delaney.
Sean Kelly, Cristy Ring, Mick Mackey, Sonia O’Sullivan.
These were great Irish sports people to be admired and respected.
McGregor is, on the other hand, an insult to all these people, and indeed what it means to be Irish.
We are much much better than the worst of us, and McGregor is the worst of us.
Barry Mcguigan pure gent
Jury of 8 women and 4 men says it all
To dim witted people maybe
Holly shit. Oh well the courts have decided and that’s the end result. I didn’t think her case was going to stand up. Shame on you McGregor
Thank you Terry for the analyisis of the verdict. The jury spent a long time deliberating on this case and they are the only ones who had to pay full attention to every detail besides the judge and senior counsel of both paries. I agree with your analysis of the verdict. I believe the jury performed their duties admirably and all must accept this verdict as a just application of the law. It is wrong to jump to conclusions without countenance to the full facts. Hence many of those who commented on your forum here jumped to conclusions without objective perspective of all the facts wherein they were expressing their subjective thinking beliefs and attitudes. Many concluded the plaintif put herself in harms way hence deserves what she got. But believing that she got what she deserves is morally wrong. If someone puts themselves in the way of harm this does not mean another can execute harm to that person. If someone puts themselves in the way of harm they are making themselves vulnerable where it is the duty and responsibility of those in the presence of vulnerability not to harm that person rather make sure to protect that person. I believe the jury was of a final mind of consensus that they distilled all to that of the plaintiffs vulnerability and the defendant took advantage of this hence causing the plaintiff harm and by that assaulted the plaintiff. This is my personal opinion.
THERE'S ONLY ONE, TRUE JUDGE, AND HE DOESN'T WARE A BLACK CLOAK.
Well said!!!! Very fair.
My Gregory thinks he's above the law I feel sorry for his wife if he had money I don't think she would be with him
Well then his wife is in some way also complicit. She had a choice, she chose money, prestige and status over being a good role daughter for her children. She knew what Conor was getting up to
Not enough money awarded in my opinion. Delighted to see this lady had the courage to stand up and fight, winning fair and square. More power to her.
Hard to be disappointed in someone you have such low expectations of but - ye - more power to Nikita for her determination and courage. Hard as well not to feel bad for Dee and Conor's children. All the money in the world but something they'll never replace.
I personally think that evidence was stronger on Conor's side. The CCTV said it all.
PDiddy parties were full of raped women walking/talking without knowledge of a rape having occurred. Patchy memories later along with bruising. After Mcgregor left to return home his security guard called up hotel staff to remove glasses from the room to be cleaned, asked in court if he always does a clean up after a Mcgregor party he said no, just that time. Strange.

Why??? The state are out to silence him
@paulr7028 no idea about that, but there was clearly no evidence linking him to her bruises apart from matrons thinking people who do mma and have tattoos are dangerous. This jury was completely inappropriate, a key claim from the accusing party "McGregor's friend claimed to have had sex twice in an hour. That is clearly impossible, check your experience of life and common sense." What? It is hard to believe there is anyone out there who thinks it isn't possible for a man to have sex twice in an hour. This is really a "what would Grandma think if she heard this" moment. Stick 6 men between 20 and 40 on this jury and a completely different outcome.

Isn't Nikita a man's name (e.g. Nikita Kruschev). It's like yanks calling their daughters Rory or Aubrey
Thank you Mr. Gorry
It's a civil cases based on the balance of probabilities; not a criminal case.
Will the DPP bring criminal charges to mcgregor now??
Don't believe so.
Do you think if this was made to a criminal trial originally. Would you think the medical evidence and the professional opinions would have got the conviction?
And in these type of cases, do you feel a jury or a judge would be better in getting the correct verdict.
Terry, James Lawrence won his decision, so will Nikita hand be responsible for paying his fees?
Justice thank GOd
It's all about the money money
Money does not give anyone an excuse to rape (even though people like trump believe it does)
MacGregor is liable but not convicted as its a civil case...but surely liable ia when no harm is caused to other party.?
That not what the word liable means. It means that the party who has committed the wrong is liable (responsible) for committing the wrong and must now give compensation to the wronged party.
Course they would find him guilty. As soon as he expressed any interest in Irish Politics, his future was decided.
Mcgregor has 100s of millions this award is not enough nothing less than 5 million would effect him, he spends that on a watch
CmcG spoke out against the irish government regardikg immigration and other matters .. he payed the price
He won’t be doing too much speaking out now
The Irish governement cant keep a building in any semblance of budget let alone frame someone come on now utter nonsense
Why not? There is no gag order on him he still believes or knows he is innocent. I think this can be appealed on a number of grounds especially the medical evidence. The conveniently deleted photos. The timing of the bruises. The friend’s evidence was shunted aside, as was the inconvenient video evidence. Jury selection was weighted against him and in my opinion the judge was not impartial. There should have been a gag order on reporting during the trial I was seeing daily, horrendously biased reporting in the tabloids calling him a “monster” etc this while the jury had not even made up their minds? It was made up for them.

I find the discussion around morality is misogynistic. McGregor's morality is not being judged. Why? In McGorry's summing up he refers to 'claims' and 'alleged' here and I thought once the jury has declared him guilty we can drop those.
It's amazing how money makes it all better?
Will McGregor have to pay all of the costs in the trial?
Terry that's a great analysis. But consider the medical evidence versus the CCTV evidence. I understand she was on video kissing and hug James L after the reported assault, right? If so, was this enough to reduce the probability of the assault/rape? Love to hear your comments on this
Is there a right to appeal?
Terry you are delighted aren't you, like the good lef ty lawyer you are

He should be delighted, these so called celebrities should have to behave within the norms of society….this is not his first time before the courts…for driving offences intimidation etc….
