Grammy-nominated rapper, Slowthai arrives at court to face trial for ‘r@ping woman

British rapper, Slowthai arrived at court today supported by his popstar wife Anne-Marie as he is set to go on trial for r@pe.

The Grammy-nominated artist, real name Tyron Kaymone Frampton, faces two charges of r@ping a woman after a gig in Oxford on September 8, 2021.

He ‘categorically’ denies the charges and claims he is ‘confident’ his name will be cleared.

Frampton’s trial is set to open tomorrow after being delayed from a previous date in May.

Co-defendant Alex Blake-Walker is also due to stand trial accused of the same charges.

The attack allegedly took place after Frampton performed at the Bullingdon Club, an exclusive dining club at the University of Oxford.
Both he and Balke-Walker deny the charges against them.

The jury was sworn in today ahead of the trial’s opening on Tuesday.
Judge Ian Pringle told the jury of eight men and four women they should not discuss the case with anyone, do any research, and avoid news reports of the trial.

‘This case may attract some publicity. If it does, please remember a reporter’s report is just their view of the case,’ he said.’

What matters is what you make of the evidence in the case. Try not to read, listen or watch any reports if it does come about.

‘Remember it is your view of the case that matters.’

The judge said the trial was expected to last up to three weeks.
