After nearly six years, Nikita Hand finally walked into a Dublin
courtroom and faced Conor McGregor.

In Part 2, we break down the 12-day civil trial: Hand's
testimony, McGregor's claim that their encounter was consensual,
the CCTV footage the defense said undermined her story, the
medical and physical evidence presented to the jury, and the
strategies used to challenge Hand's credibility.

Then, after six hours and ten minutes of deliberation, the jury
returned its verdict.

We follow what happened next—including the damages awarded,
McGregor's appeals, and what the case says about the way sexual
assault allegations are investigated, prosecuted, defended, and
discussed.

And as McGregor attempted to stage a public comeback, we return
to the part of his story that shouldn't be erased: the civil jury
verdict Nikita Hand fought nearly seven years to obtain.

To be clear: This episode is based on the evidence presented in
court and the public record. If you're looking for a defense of
Conor McGregor, this probably isn't the episode for you.

Content warning: This episode contains detailed discussion of
sexual assault, physical injuries, and trauma.
