British YouTuber and musician Yung Filly, 30, is on trial in Perth District Court accused of sexually assaulting a young woman after a gig in Western Australia in September 2024. Prosecutors allege the woman, who was a fan, went with Yung Filly to a hotel and that he sexually penetrated her without consent, with additional allegations including that he bit, slapped and strangled her. The woman gives evidence that she feared for her safety and required medical treatment after the alleged bite, including a tetanus shot.

Multiple outlets report that CCTV footage has been shown in court depicting the rapper and the woman arriving at a Perth hotel together shortly before the alleged assault. Yung Filly pleads not guilty to the sexual assault charges, and several reports state he will testify in his own defence. Sources describe his account as denying that the alleged rape occurred and characterising the interaction as consensual. The matter is proceeding through the trial process; reporting also notes later sentencing-related steps for other convictions were expected if bodily harm charges are ultimately addressed.
