Woman claims comedian Sil Fox sexually assaulted her during photo

A woman has claimed she was groped by veteran comedian Sil Fox when she asked to have her photo taken with him on a Christmas night out in Dublin.

Questioned by State solicitor Alva O'Herlihy, she said Mr Fox came up to her group and said: "Hi ya girls, are you looking for men and there was a blatant chorus of 'no' and he said f*** you and turned away from us", but that was described by another witness as banter or a joke. The court heard that as her friend said "smile", Mr Fox put his hand on the woman's lap, on to her groin and proceeded to sexually assault her. The woman claimed, in doing so he said, "You will always remember where this picture was taken."

She told Mr Fox, "You sexually assaulted me, you groped me, and you are a dirty old man". His reply, she claimed, was "You should be so lucky" and she then told him she would "put you on Facebook". Cross examined by defence counsel Emer Ní Chúagáin she said the assault lasted for 30 seconds during the taking of the photograph. Asked why he was smiling in the photo she said she was shocked and did not know what to say.She did not think it was an accident or that his hand slipped. She realised what was happening and stopped smiling but the photo had been taken.

CCTV was shown to her and she agreed it took three seconds, not 30, to take the photo and her hand was going toward Mr Fox as he leaned in.

This is the MeToo propaganda in full swing. Read the woman’s testimony, full of contradictions and Mistruths. Thank god for CCTV and hopefully the judge isn’t a radfem. Opportunistic claimants hurt the cause of real victims and destroy innocent men’s lives

At 86 if he wa a predator I’m sure it would have come out before

Sly Fox now.

Most likely true

I thought we didn't name people unless they were convicted.

This person is trying to blacken a beautiful person and has been respected all through his show business life.

I don’t think you should be naming the accused....
