By rejecting his bid for appeal the High Court has made Bruce Lehrmann's defamation case a complete failure
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-04-11/high-court-bruce-lehrmann-defamation-case-complete-failure/106548078Bruce Lehrmann is a rapist and, again, a loser. He's lost another attempt in court to clear his name. It appears this was his final chance with the legal system — he's exhausted all possibilities. Along the way, he's very publicly made himself look like a self-entitled, privileged, nepotistic, drug-abusing, right-wing nut-job, misogynistic rapist.
I don't have much to add, other than sympathy for Brittany Higgins because of the ordeal she's been put through due to Bruce Lehrmann and his rape-excusing supporters in the Liberal Party like the vindictive former senator Linda Reynolds.

CW: CW: rape, Bruce Lehrmann
Bruce Lehrmann loses appeal against failed defamation case ruling
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-12-03/live-bruce-lehrmann-defamation-appeal-finding/106090370Convicted rapist and Liberal Party staffer, Bruce Lehrmann, has lost another court case. He was trying to undo the court's earlier decision that journalist Lisa Wilkinson and her employer, Network Ten, were reporting the news truthfully when they stated he had raped Brittany Higgins in 2019. I am not a lawyer, but my understanding is that the Truth Defence in a Defamation case is difficult to pull-off in Australia, yet they managed it because the facts were so clear. Furthermore, it's now safe to say that Bruce Lehrmann deserves his reputation as a rapist, Lisa Wilkinson and Network Ten didn't harm his reputation, and any reputational harm he's incurred has been self-inflicted.
In this fresh loss for the politically-protected, right-wing rapist, the court added to the damning record of Bruce Lehrmann:
- In a bizarre backflip from earlier claiming he didn't rape Brittany Higgins, this time he tried to downplay his crimes by asserting he committed rape in a "non-violent" fashion. The court said it didn't make a lot of difference for the Truth Defence; however you look at it, he's still a rapist.
- He should pay legal costs for Lisa Wilkinson and Network Ten for this case.
- He still owes $2 Million for legal costs for Lisa Wilkinson and Network Ten for previous losses. -
Brittany Higgins has dropped her appeal against Linda Reynolds’ defamation victory, effectively greenlighting bankruptcy proceedings that could see Higgins & Sharaz pursued for over $1M in legal costs. The WA Supreme Court found no evidence Reynolds covered up Higgins’ 2019 rape—despite a separate civil finding that Lehrmann assaulted her on the balance of probabilities.
This outcome punishes a survivor for speaking out, while rewarding a powerful ex-minister who weaponised defamation law to silence criticism. Reynolds now demands a parliamentary inquiry into Labor “weaponising” the case—classic deflection from systemic failures in handling sexual assault in Parliament House.

late edit to remove an auto correct misuse of apostrophe grrr🤬
Parliamentary Enquiries are for the most part an enormously expensive diversion tactic, designed to shut people up while elected governments just go ahead and phuk things up the way they originally intended.
Reynolds was heard on national tv calling higgins a “lying cow”. whatever she truly meant by that comment is irrelevant — she publicly shit on someone to whom she had a duty of care. and now reynolds is aggrieved because she feels she, herself, has been publicly dumped on, and not content with a simple pound of flesh, she is going in for the proverbial kill. there seems, as a bare minimum, to be a double standard behind her quest to bankrupt higgins (at the very least, it highlights the way justice really works in a crapitalist democracy)
Linda Reynolds’ obsession with “clearing her good name” is a lost cause, and the best she can hope for is to just pfaff right off and fade from our memories altogether.
it’s the only way we are likely to stop thinking badly of her.

from the Saturday Paper:
“Linda Reynolds is demanding a parliamentary inquiry into the events that followed Brittany Higgins’s rape in her office. The following is a precis of the former minister’s actions over that time. By Chris Wallace.”

Former WA senator Linda Reynolds wins defamation battle against Brittany Higgins
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-08-27/linda-reynolds-brittany-higgins-david-sharaz-defamation-trial/104830130FFS! Or, to put it more politely, this appears to be a miscarriage of justice.
IANAL, but IMHO, Linda Reynolds has weaponised our legal system and vindictively misused our (broken) Defamation laws against Brittany Higgins.
I believe Brittany Higgins when she said Linda Reynolds mishandled her rape allegation, and that the former Senator and Defence Minister harassed her and tried to silence her for speaking-up as a sexual assault victim.
I also believe Linda Reynolds has such a toxic personality and dire public reputation that it's hardly possible for anything Brittany Higgins has said to harm the reputation of Linda Reynolds. Linda Reynolds claiming she's the victim looks awfully like DARVO. It's clear that by siding with a rapist and attacking the victim, Linda Reynolds is a Crumb Maiden of the Patriarchy.
For a recap of things Linda Reynolds has done to ruin her own reputation independently of what Brittany Higgins said on social media, here are some facts established in court about her:
- Bruce Lehrmann raped Brittany Higgins in the office of Linda Reynolds. Yet, Linda Reynolds showed little care or responsibility as an employer toward her own staffers.
- Linda Reynolds was asked by Brittany Higgins for help and advice after being raped, but in response Linda Reynolds was unsympathetic and called Brittany Higgins a "lying cow".
- Linda Reynolds leaked documents to the media about Brittany Higgins that were marked "Confidential" and "Legal professional privilege."
- Lina Reynolds destroyed evidence, such as deleting text messages with Bruce Lehrmann’s former barrister, and removing the couch upon which Bruce Lehrmann raped Brittany Higgins from the crime scene before it could have a forensic investigation.#AusPol #LindaReynolds #CrumbMaiden #CrumbMaidenOfThePatriarchy #BruceLehrmann #BrittanyHiggins

CW: CW: sexual assault, auspol.
#BruceLehrmann argues that his case may’ve differed had he known that Justice Lee might find him, on balance, guilty of a crime the criminal courts could not. He claims a distinction, as if the trauma were somehow diminished, because #BrittanyHiggins was heavily intoxicated at the time. He alleges he was denied procedural fairness as the rape—which he's heretofore maintained never occurred—wasn't violent.
He's run out of excuses.

@cathfyffe
If I recall correctly, Reynolds revealed that she had leaked to the media, confidential information obtained as part of the legal discovery process. Her justification was that she felt offended by something done by or on behalf of Higgins.Apparently, what Reynolds did is not illegal. It should be. At the very least, it reflects Reynolds' character.

It's probably time for a review of Australia's defamation laws - and legislation against abuse of legal processes.
