UK rapper and internet personality Yung Filly has been found not guilty of three counts of sexual penetration without consent following a trial in Western Australia.
The 30-year-old, whose real name is Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos, had been accused of sexually assaulting a 20-year-old woman in his hotel room after performing at a nightclub in Hillarys, Perth, in 2024.
A jury found him not guilty of three rape charges and one count of assault occasioning bodily harm, as well as a charge of strangulation.
However, he was found guilty of two counts of assault occasioning bodily harm. The jury was unable to reach a verdict on three other rape charges, meaning prosecutors will decide whether to pursue those charges again.
Barrientos, who pleaded not guilty to all charges, reportedly cried as the verdicts were read.
He will remain on bail until August 21, when the court is expected to address the next steps, including sentencing arrangements.
