Day 18 wrap
Our live coverage of the Bruce Lehrmann defamation trial will continue on Tuesday. Please find our wrap of Monday’s proceedings below.
Brown is now being asked about a meeting she had with Higgins on Thursday 28 March, which we reported earlier, when Brown said Higgins told her “I am responsible for what I drink and my actions”.
Brown said that during this meeting Higgins said she remembered Lehrmann on top of her, and that she said this in a casual manner.
Brown said she was shocked by this, but didn’t understand what Higgins was telling her.
“I did not know what she meant by that,” Brown said.
Brown said she walked over to Higgins at this point and offered her tea or water.
Chrysanthou asked Brown why this wasn’t recorded in her contemporaneous notes from the time. Brown said: “It should have been in my notes.”
“I should have put it in.”
Justice Lee has adjourned for today. The court will resume at 10.15am with Brown in the witness box and no live stream.
