Mixed martial arts fighter Connor McGregor has been accused and charged for a brutal rape of Nakita Hand. The verdict causing some to defend McGregor and others to start conversation on how society interacts with power. The question of which the verdict is true is seemingly up for debate due to McGregor's immense fame and power despite the evidence that was shown against him.

Adding more information on the McGregor case, Many were skeptical about this particular case because of how Nakita Hand decided to file a civil lawsuit and not a criminal lawsuit. leaving many people wondering on social media if she only decided to file this lawsuit for money. But with the evidence that was shown in the case, it was ultimately enough for the jury to decide that McGregor was guilty.

Your information seems biased as there is no given true information that is confirmed. Finding more credible websites too will help be a good start. This is a good beginning but I suggest to make it less biased, more researched, ion using highly reliable sources.

This appears to be true and there is lots of online disagreement about how McGregor is being treated by social media platforms and the online attention he is getting despite the concerning case in which he is involved. I was able to find similar information in an AP article written by Brian Melley. There also seems to be discourse surrounding the evidence that was looked over during the trial and a conflict of that evidence possibly not being portrayed completely and thoroughly to the judges. All things considered, the level at which this conflict was portrayed in the media could very well have been much more significant if Conor McGregor did not carry such profit-generating ability in the world of sports media, which is a topic that is debated constantly in today's day and age of growing popularity of technology.

The source used also appears to be legitimate given one of the writers, Ashifa Kassam, is the Guardian's European Community Affairs Correspondent. She has also done many articles for the Guardian regarding concepts of politics, economics, and agriculture.
