Yung Filly Rape Trial Nears Verdict

Lawyers are delivering closing statements in the Australian trial of British YouTuber and rapper Yung Filly, who is charged with raping and choking a fan after a music performance in Perth two years ago.

The prosecution described the entertainer as an "entitled semi-celebrity" who cared little for his alleged victim.

The jury is expected to begin considering their verdicts on Wednesday.

If convicted, the British entertainer faces a potential prison sentence of 15 years.
