Jurors were told the defendant faced “allegations in this trial which are of a very serious nature”
A man has gone on trial for allegedly sexually assaulting a pupil at a special needs school while he was principal at the school.
The defendant, who denies the allegations, faces six charges of raping the complainant, three charges of sexually assaulting her, and one charge of sexual activity by an adult with a person with a mental disorder. He said the complainant, who was born with a medical condition knows as translocation, had very limited independent skills and had no awareness of things such as road safety, money or time. The barrister said because of her medical condition, the complainant would not have had the mental capacity to give her consent for the alleged incidents.
