St George Illawarra forward Jack de Belin will stand trial on a number of sexual assault charges in March of next year.
De Belin will front court on March 2, 2020, with the trial set to last around two weeks.
The Origin forward is pleading not guilty to four separate charges of aggravated sexual assault in company, as well as one charge of aggravated sexual assault in company causing actual bodily harm.
De Belin will face the same charges as Callan Sinclair, who allegedly joined him on the night.
The 28-year-old hasn't played since March after being stood down due to the NRL's "no fault stand-down" rule.
Wasn’t his appeal hearing due this week ?
Have not heard anything yet.
The initial court case is basically to say he’s pleading not guilty, but now the actual criminal trial is in March. Hard to see him getting off with the evidence the police have been finding. If guilty he will do many years in prison.
I believe JDB and his co-accused are in big, big trouble.
daffy, I mean’t his appeal against the NRL Stand Down policy.
