Youtuber Yung Filly leaves court smiling after pleading not guilty
In October 2024, a young woman reported to the Western Australia Police, claiming that she was s*xually assaulted in rapper Yung Filly’s hotel room just hours after his opening show at Bar1 on September 27. Since October the rapper has been out on bail.
On Tuesday, Barrientos appeared before the Perth Magistrates' Court, where he denied all s*xual assault-related charges.
Following his court appearance, the rapper faced paparazzi outside the court. Instead of addressing the allegations directly, he remained lighthearted and avoided discussing the case. He greeted reporters and remarked on the pleasant weather before swiftly departing in a car.
Yung Filly said:
“Good afternoon. Enjoy the weather man, it’s a lovely day!”
