The partner of actor Craig McLachlan has been accused in court of "making up" evidence in order to "bolster" his case on day seven of his defamation trial.
On her second day in the witness box, McLachlan's partner, conductor Vanessa Scammell, was accused by the barrister representing the news networks of giving "untrue evidence". In response, Michael Hodge QC said that she had "exaggerated" this number to "bolster" Mr McLachlan's case, suggesting was retrospectively "inserting" herself into the theatre so that she would be present for incidents in question.Yesterday, the jury heard from Ms Scammell that she was in McLachlan's Brisbane dressing room to witness a conversation between her partner and Whelan Browne.
Lavercombe, who gave evidence via video link from the UK, told the court he had played the part of Riff Raff "about 2,000 times" over the past 10 years.
Give it up ABC. You defamed him and now you're using tax-payers money trying to sway the court of public opinion. What you wrote about him during that time was gross and repugnant. I hope you lose.
Hilarious given that's what the media is accused of also in the same court. Hence the lawsuit.
... but we often kiss & make up !
