Judge summing up in police rape trial

The judge continues to sum up the case in the police rape trial.

Justice Randerson has told jurors that to return a guilty verdict, they must be sure Louise Nicholas did not consent to sexual activity with three policeman in Rotorua 20 years ago, regardless of whether force was used.

He said they must also be sure the accused could not have reasonably believed she gave her consent.

The jury at the High Court in Auckland is expected to retire to begin deliberations shortly
