Overview
- The trial, before Sheriff Paul Reid at Perth Sheriff Court, concerns a March 22, 2024 prosecco and pizza hen party at Crieff Hydro attended by about 15 guests.
- The bride-to-be testified that the entertainer ignored her repeated “no thank you” refusals, forced her legs apart, made her simulate oral sex, groped and jiggled her breasts and left her so distressed she vomited.
- Prosecution outlined additional claims that the defendant induced her to drink from a penis-shaped straw, compelled her to handle a fake penis, thrust his hips towards her and seized her arms against his chest.
- Stuart Kennedy has denied all allegations, rejecting accusations of groping, unwanted kissing attempts and restraining the woman during his performance.
- Witness statements diverge, with one sister saying she immediately regretted booking the entertainer and another describing a routine “Magic Mike” style act with no unusual behaviour.
