A detective investigating Jack de Belin s rape case willfully lied giving evidence in the NRL star s first trial, a jury has been told.
De Belin s lawyer David Campbell SC described the officer s conduct as a gross departure from his job by not taking any notes of the first 90- minute conversation he had with the woman making the allegations. You knew full well as a police officer, your obligation is to make a record of a complaint received from a citizen, Mr Campbell said on Monday.
