Lehrmann was charged in December 2022 over an alleged incident in the Queensland town in October 2021.
Former Liberal Party staffer Bruce Lehrmann has attended a regional Queensland court for the first time since being charged with rape more than a year ago.
He took a seat behind the bar table and beside his barrister Andrew Hoare with documents and a leather-bound notebook in hand.The small regional courtroom almost ran out of standing room due to the number of journalists and a court sketch artist in the public gallery. Lehrmann was able to be identified after being denied an ongoing non-publication of his identity by the Queensland Supreme Court.
