By rejecting his bid for appeal the High Court has made Bruce Lehrmann's defamation case a complete failure

Bruce Lehrmann is a rapist and, again, a loser. He's lost another attempt in court to clear his name. It appears this was his final chance with the legal system — he's exhausted all possibilities. Along the way, he's very publicly made himself look like a self-entitled, privileged, nepotistic, drug-abusing, right-wing nut-job, misogynistic rapist.

I don't have much to add, other than sympathy for Brittany Higgins because of the ordeal she's been put through due to Bruce Lehrmann and his rape-excusing supporters in the Liberal Party like the vindictive former senator Linda Reynolds.

Bruce Lehrmann loses appeal against failed defamation case ruling
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-12-03/live-bruce-lehrmann-defamation-appeal-finding/106090370

Convicted rapist and Liberal Party staffer, Bruce Lehrmann, has lost another court case. He was trying to undo the court's earlier decision that journalist Lisa Wilkinson and her employer, Network Ten, were reporting the news truthfully when they stated he had raped Brittany Higgins in 2019. I am not a lawyer, but my understanding is that the Truth Defence in a Defamation case is difficult to pull-off in Australia, yet they managed it because the facts were so clear. Furthermore, it's now safe to say that Bruce Lehrmann deserves his reputation as a rapist, Lisa Wilkinson and Network Ten didn't harm his reputation, and any reputational harm he's incurred has been self-inflicted.

In this fresh loss for the politically-protected, right-wing rapist, the court added to the damning record of Bruce Lehrmann:
- In a bizarre backflip from earlier claiming he didn't rape Brittany Higgins, this time he tried to downplay his crimes by asserting he committed rape in a "non-violent" fashion. The court said it didn't make a lot of difference for the Truth Defence; however you look at it, he's still a rapist.
- He should pay legal costs for Lisa Wilkinson and Network Ten for this case.
- He still owes $2 Million for legal costs for Lisa Wilkinson and Network Ten for previous losses.
