Marines Turcios and Martinezjaramillo found not guilty in Darwin rape cover-up trial

Marines cleared of five charges after young Americans’ photos ‘fatally undermine’ Darwin teen’s rape allegations.

The court heard evidence in the wake of the incident that the woman “appeared in shock” to her friend and made disclosures.

Despite making alleged disclosures to two friends in the days after, it was only when she suffered an adverse reaction to MDMA a week later that she told emergency services and sparked police involvement.

Turcios agreed that the attachments he sent Martinezjaramillo contained the woman’s private medical records but said he ”sent the whole brief because that’s where the statement was”.

He agreed that he “knew a prosecution was coming” but denied sending Martinezjaramillo the brief so he could “tailor his evidence” if called as a witness.
