New date set as courts shift de Belin trial to Sydney – Fox Sports
St George Illawarra lock Jack de Belin has a new court date after the jury was unable to reach a verdict in his rape trial.
The NSW Origin forward and Callan Sinclair are accused of sexually assaulting a woman at a Wollongong apartment in December 2018. Both deny the charges.
The jury deliberated for a total of 10 hours before informing the judge on Monday that the divide (among the jury) has remained consistent and is unlikely to change.
A date for a retrial has been set for April 12 in Sydney. Initially it appeared as though de Belin would have to wait until August for a retrial to take place in Wollongong.
