Melbourne entertainment agent Ralph Carr identified after rape conviction
Ralph Carr, a prominent Melbourne talent manager, was named as the businessman convicted of rape after a suppression order was lifted.
The County Court removed a long-standing gag order, allowing the public to learn that Ralph Carr, who has represented figures such as Dustin Martin and Kate Ceberano, was found guilty of rape and sexual assault. Carr’s lawyer, Dermot Dann KC, announced that his client will drop a bid to extend the order and will appeal the jury’s verdict. The conviction stems from an assault that occurred at Carr’s home.
Why it matters
The case shows that high-profile figures can be held accountable despite attempts to keep their identities hidden.
