Former NRL star tells court he would have known if she was not consenting to sex and he would have respected her decision
Former NRL star Jarryd Hayne, who is accused of raping a woman in her bedroom, says he understands “no” means “no”.
Questioned by crown prosecutor Brian Costello on Monday during his rape trial in the Newcastle district court, Hayne said that if the woman told him “no”, “no Jarryd”, “Jarryd stop”, he would have known she was not consenting and would have respected her decision.
