The Sydney Morning Herald reports
A Sydney lawyer has been found not guilty of sexual assault, after his barrister told a jury the alleged victim exaggerated and embellished the details of a consensual sexual encounter.
Steven Mercael, 29, faced trial in Parramatta District Court accused of sexually assaulting a woman at a western Sydney office in December 2019 after the pair had spent the evening drinking and consuming cocaine.
