In making his findings, Justice Lee said he it was"more likely than not" that Bruce Lehrmann raped Brittany Higgins on a couch in parliament in 2019 by being recklessly indifferent to her inability to consent to sexual intercourse. “I am satisfied that it is more likely than not that Mr Lehrmann's state of mind was such that he was so intent upon gratification to be indifferent to Ms Higgins' consent and hence went ahead with sexual intercourse without caring whether she consented," he said.
