A family court judge found, on the balance of probabilities, that Andrew Griffiths raped, physically assaulted and coercively controlled his wife. The matter was before the Court because of his application for direct contact to a child.
He resigned as a minister in July 2018, after media reports he had sent ‘depraved’ messages to two women constituents. His ex wife asked for findings to be made. These weren’t made public at the time, November 2020. Subsequently, journalists made an application that the public interest would be served if the findings were made public, it succeeded.
Mr Griffiths appealed, it was dismissed by three appeal Judges last Friday.
