One of the women who alleges she was raped by an entertainment industry figure in 2019 has spoken about waking up in a bed with the sheets 'full of blood”.

The woman said the man, who cannot be named for legal reasons, had asked her to accompany him to Auckland where they would meet people she believed could help her own entertainment industry aspirations.

She also told the High Court jury in Rotorua that the man put some drugs, which she described as white powder, into her mouth while they were at an Auckland restaurant.

She said she had been drinking, and she started to feel 'blurry”.

'There was this thing in front of me, white powder, on the finger tip,” she said.

She said she didn't remember how she got back to the accommodation the man had booked.

Asked about what happened next by Crown prosecutor Anna Pollett​, she said all she could remember was three 'flashes”.

'Glimpses of what was happening. . . my eyes were closed, I was naked and then my eyes were closed again then I was down in a different position, just flashed of what was happening,” she said.

'I was naked, that's what I remember first, the second I was in a position. . . below him, and third just on my stomach”.

Asked whether she wanted any sexual activity to take place, she said no.

She said she then remembered waking up in a bed, with the man, and 'the sheets were bloody, full of blood”.

She also said she remembered a sore feeling in her vagina.

The woman, who gave evidence from behind a screen, told the court about another encounter with the man when, she claimed, unwanted sexual activity occurred.

She said he contacted her via social media and they arranged to go to a gym together for a workout.

However, he asked her to meet at a hotel, where she said they had sex despite her not wanting to.

She said she kept telling the man she had to leave, but was scared as he was much larger than her and had adopted what she described as a firmer manner

'I just knew in my head I wasn't leaving without him getting what he wanted. . . sex,” she said.

She said she texted him in the wake of that encounter to ask 'what the f... was that”.

She said he replied 'something along the lines of yeah, but it was good right?”

Defence lawyer Ron Mansfield had told the jury earlier in the trial that his client denied all the allegations against him, many of them the result of what he described as a 'me too fest”.

The man was popular, he said, so didn't need to 'resort to that type of technique to have sex with women”.

He described his client as a man who had gone 'from rags to riches”, and that while 'many in our community adore him, along come the haters”.

'He's bent a few noses ... they are more than willing to see this man fall down.”

He also admitted his client had enjoyed 'sex and drugs and rock'n roll” but that his behaviour 'certainly didn't involve drugging women”.

The trial in the High Court in Rotorua is set to continue.
