Helloooo, really wanted to cover this situation as i know it will be quite important to a lot of you watching! There's a lot of dark things mentioned in this video so if you're struggling with anything mentioned in this video pls do reach out to somebody because it can do the world of good. Much love donuts x
Please do more vids like this Cam, your empathy, none bias, and make it easier to understand everything, is brilliant! I'll watch what ever u do as I really like your content, but I do enjoy these , thank you , take care ! X
A woman should not be able to sue for criminal conduct that Police refuse to level criminal charges for due to lack of evidence. This was a joke, she was clearly all over both men in CCTV footage and her own friend even claimed she was lying.
You should do more research on a case like this before posting. Yes conor mcgregor is a foul human being, but there is too much gaping holes in her story and lack of evidence, literally anyone with 2 threads of common sense can see this is a cash grab. Nearly all my law friends say the same thing here in Ireland. I personally think their both rotten humans in general just he is getting more flack because he is a bloke, when in reality she left her man at home with her children to go and get smashed and party, also she left and then returned??? in this day and age when it's "see something say something" and "we have the power", yet she went back to a so called rapist? not fucking with this one cam lmao
The guy that was like 'she's partying for days with a three year old at home!' seems to forget that Conor was also out partying with an even younger kid at home (just googled it and his first kid was born in 2017 and this happened in 2018) The double standards are screaming misogyny
they dont care about what a man does. a man can sexually assault a woman but if the woman is a bad mother that means that it doesnt matter that she got sa'ed to these men.
@@Louca-pv9ne lunatic, no one saying a man can sexually assault anyone thats deluded. Fact is there was NO WHERE NEAR enough evidence for a conviction, her best friend testified calling her a liar and one of the accused was found innocent based on the same evidence. Absolutely no one is defending mcgregor he's a dickhead and a sad excuse of a man the way he treats his family, but lets call a spade a spade SHE left the hotel and went right back there for more "fun", there's more holes in this story than anything. Blatant cash grab. The fact your all trying to misdirect the accountability to one person is astounding, no you go girl get that bag queen...SMH.
They all made horrible decisions. It doesn’t mean she deserves to be r*ped. You can’t just be friends with men unfortunately there’s no such thing she probably didn’t even know he ordered condoms.
Im so fed up of people saying "she went back to a hotel what did she expect". I went to a hotel with a guy i knew with every intention to have sex. Midway through he started getting really violent, slapped me in the face so hard my lip split and i was left covered in bruises. As soon as it becomes violent without consent its SA. After that experience i was completely normal until i got home and got into bed, then i realised what had happened and was devastated.
I had a similar experience, took a while to come to terms with what happened. You are so strong and honestly amazing for speaking on this as well because so many people think "oh she was with it when they started" then blame the victim for the things that happen after the initial consent. It takes so much courage to open up about something so personal and painful, I hope you know how much your voice matters and how you are not alone with an experience like this
@@thesmurfman14no dude , because if he didn’t say to her he was going to be rough then you can’t consider it as consensual. It’s like doing something completely different to what was started and then because the person is being roughed up , a person will be in fear. Think of it like a robbery , a person puts a knife to your throat so you hand them your phone , are you consenting to this ? No you are not, but you are in fear. Hope that has helped your understanding.
@@6_00pmm one issue here ya. Consenting to sex’s is like me asking the guy with a knife to come in to my house to put the knife to my neck. Does that clear your understanding up? two dudes did put a Skinning knife up to my neck. I told them cut deep because I got about 5 seconds to stab everyone around me while I go down. I meant every word and they fukd off.
So defenders say, she cheated therefore she can't be trusted. Take that and flip it, Conor cheated, therefore he can't be trusted. The "logic" falls apart
But conor isn’t trying to claim he got SA’d. Nobody is denying conor cheated (or maybe he didn’t cheat because he might have an open relationship). Point is she is claiming being a victim when she isn’t.
@@gilbej91 huh? What the hell are you on about? You made a ridiculous claim that people don’t believe her cause she cheated. That’s not true because. People don’t believe her cause her story does add up and there are heaps of inconsistencies.
@@scottsterling4713 all women who accuse men of SA must be believed and all men must be found guilty, that’s the rule in modern day society😂 it’s so obvious she wasn’t SA’d and more likely that she just regretted cheating on her partner. That happens so much in these cases where women cheat, regret it so they just throw the R word around.
so people not believing Nikita because she cheated on her partner but believing Connor even though he willingly cheated on his gf too? Double standarts much...
Noooo… people aren’t believing her because she stuck around and continued partying and hooked up with Conor’s friend AFTER Conor supposedly SAed her. Not to mention her friend testified against her saying everything seemed fine afterwards. So why would a woman who was SAed, continue partying and hook up after?..
@@BigJugsRule92when someone threatens to kill you, and if you’re high which can make you more paranoid (aka more likely to fully believe he actually will do it) continuing to do what you believe will keep you ‘safe’ is not strange behaviour. it’s a response like fight/flight/freeze called fawn. how was she to know that connor and his friend hadn’t planned something like this? or that his friend would also threaten to kill her. it’s not far fetched to assume that a friend of someone who’s violent is also violent
As an Irish woman this whole court case makes me sick to the stomach. I never liked him and Cam you are so right about the fact that €250k wouldn’t even make a dent in his pocket. He is a man with power and uses that to his advantage like most men with power do
Disliking somine is not reason to find them guilty of a crime that Police deemed there was insufficient evidence to prove and the accuser was found to not be credible for obvious reasons.
@ I’m not saying she’s a saint either bc at the end of the day she cheated on her partner at the time. But what he done to her is way more extreme than her cheating on her bf
Really enjoying your venture into more journalistic style videos. From the XO era to now, there’s such growth; you’ve never lost that humility and you’ve stayed grounded. Rare that, and we love to see it. Big love :)
I only recently started watching this guy, and earlier in I stumbled upon one of his old old videos like I'm talking 6 years ago. He's for sure come a long way in terms of productions and presentation style. 👍🏻
@@CamKirkhamWhy are you so biased?, there's CCTV footage showing that after the so-called SA she was happy and when Coner left, she even slept with Lawrence she was also caught on CCTV flirting with Lawrence not to mention the people in the surrounding rooms heard no screaming nor a plea for help, I just don't get how people can believe a story with so many holes in it, as for the tampon she probably left it in and just forgot to take it out many women have claimed that they personally know other women that have done the same thing before sex, and the bruises that we're on her could've came from anywhere, my personal opinion is she went home the ex boyfriend found out she committed infidelity and he beat her although it's just a theory because I don't have evidence, not to mention if Coner actually hit her don't you think she would've been dead considering Coner hits fully grown men for a living and he can knock those men out in seconds, and just for the record Coner wasn't found guilty of grape he was found liable for the injuries she had but most people are making it seem like it's already a proven fact that he graped her...
His behaviour towards random women in clubs says it all, imagine a man going up to another man and pulling his hair so hard his head is yanked back or slapping/groping him without asking. I wouldn’t even need to see anything else to know he’s got no respect or boundaries. And while I understand the law has standards for evidence, every woman watching this knows he’s guilty and that she won’t be the only woman it’s happened to or at least not the last. I bet others come forward now…
since you said this was a safe space: I had an ex who repeatedly assaulted me, including a time when was choking me out & I couldn't breathe. I genuinely thought I was gonna die. I've been avoiding the conor mcgregor story bc the fact that YET ANOTHER person in a position of power is an abuser makes me want to stop existing in this world. Hearing that someone who went thru an experience that I can relate to got justice makes me feel a little bit better.
lots of my ex say i hurt them too but in reality borderline personality is a thing and crazy woman are real more believable than the big foot himself. Woman play the victim too much nowdays This is another Andrew tate case imo.
imagine how scary it must be to have something like this happen to you by someone with such a big media presence, the amount of courage that takes to speak out is phenomenal. my heart goes out to nikita :((
@@rusty5078 here come XY's with their nonsense. Unable to take accountability for themselves no matter how poorly they behave, defending similar men as fervently as they would defend themselves because they've probably done the same thing.
it's awful how many people are totally unwilling to believe SA victims who aren't the mythical "perfect victim." sometimes it feels like that never really changes. but you're absolutely right that Nikita Hand has done something so courageous and genuinely groundbreaking. thanks for covering this with the compassion and thoughtfulness that you always have!
It's quite fascinating how differently the genders are treated when it comes to accountability. If SA happens when a woman is drunk, that's her fault, what did she expect? If a man forces himself on a woman while drunk, absolutely no way can he be held accountable! He was inebriated, after all, he couldn't control his own actions!!! A woman trusts a man who ends up hurting her? "What did you expect? He's a man!" "You should have chosen better!". Always. Always It's her fault. But when a guy harms women, so many others rush to his defence. I'm tired of this double standard dudes have, that they can push all the accountability onto the woman and he'll never be held accountable all while they scream that's what women need to do. How much more accountability do women need, exactly? We are blamed for literally everything men do to us no matter what it is. "Like a compass points north, a man's accusing finger will find a woman," ig.
I would argue we have been atleast for the last 15 years now been taking women's word at face value and instantly condemning and judging the accused before seeing any sort of VALID evidence. their both foul human beings for cheating on their partners and embarrassing their families in this way, but it is a cash grab pure and simple there wasn't enough evidence for a criminal trial so she thought she would try her luck in civil. Any irony that James was found innocent of the same charge with the same evidence? We need to hold more lying cheating women accountable to, your all screaming for "equality", such bullshit....
1000%, i want to believe all victims to begin with, when he started to get into the story i did have some doubts, but when evidence of the severity of the bruising where the EMT was concerned + the tampon being in at ALL is plenty enough to prove that it wasn't consensual, because even if she went in w the intention of cheating (which i dont condone at all i think all cheaters should go to hell), she would have stopped him the moment it went in because tampons themselves can hurt u like hell, i could only imagine mustve been unbearable pain she was probably crying the whole time 😢
@@lyssalynn1017I am not saying she is lying and the bruising is bad. But I want to point out that there are a lot of women who get drunk or/and high and forget to take their tampon out. Many of them have sex without realising, presumably being intoxicated dulling their senses but a lot of them also don't notice the day/after either. A lot actually don't realize until they get an infection, pain due to their body attempting to reject the tampon, or even go into toxic shock. Also how much women physically feel things varies a lot, some can't stand the menstrual cup because they constantly feel it, where as others can't feel it at all.
She was on a 3 day bender away from her child and partner sending nudes to a man then going to a hotel with him and if the apparent CCTV is true where she had a sausage in her mouth in the lift then I wouldn't believe a word she says and as for the comment saying you want to believe all victims is absolutely dumb especially against men with money or did the whole deal with the amber and jonny depp case not show you the heights women will go to to destroy a man especially a famous one
I think it’s so different to the original one so hard to compare. I personally think both are great, as a RUclipsr the way you respond and react is very vocal, so it’s not essential to look at your face to see your expressions. However you do clearly speak with your face too, the new background being darker actually focuses us more on your face when we do watch. I did like the old background seeing stuff there but equally like how the new one focuses us to look at your expressions. It also enhances the expressions thus making it look more expressive and reactive. God I’m such a nerd, but thank you for always looking to improve the channel for yourself and us.
Fun Fact: I called out MMA for letting some dodgy people slide through the cracks and all I got was trolling about my appearance and queerness. Some sports fans would rather be in awe of hateful monsters than listen to the truth.
You are talking about people that put themselves in a cage to get there face repeatedly beat by an opponent who wants to knock them unconscious…. You can’t expect it not to have so absolute animals involved
I can’t read the comment sections on any video related to this case on TikTok because it’s full of men calling her a liar!! They could have all the evidence in the world and they’d still defend him! Only when it’s their mum, sister or partner.. they care 🙄
but in this case they don't have all the evidence in the world and in fact there is a lot of evidence countering the fact that he's guilty. I feel like a lot of people have also switched sides as the last big case like this was Depp vs amber and we know amber ended up lying about pretty much everything. I'm not saying conor is innocent but there isn't conclusive evidence on either side of the case so I don't think people should be making their mind up either way yet
I think what is confusing and doesn't make her look great is the fact she can remember somethings absolutely perfectly yet has no recollection of others.
I have to say I'm really really impressed with your empathy towards Nikita and what she went through; it's a rare thing to see this level of understanding. I'm also thankful that you brought up the after-effects that victims go through, as well -- so many people don't get that this sort of this doesn't just happen to you and then it's done; it goes on and on, sometimes for years. It's really validating to hear that explained ♥
Absolutely, this is such a refreshing take especially from a man to really empathize with the ramifications. I know him being a survivor helps but nonetheless it’s really wonderful to see and so validating to hear.
I never heard back from the police personally. I filed the police report, did the medical exam, had the photos, the police interview and then nothing. I tried a few times to see if the case had any updates, but then I moved and I just gave up. I can say, I don't know a single woman who would have s*x with a tampon in. That alone makes he think this was not a conscious decision. The report from the paramedic too. There is no such thing as a perfect victim and you can't just disregard what she went trough because of her flaws.
I cannot stand the people who pull the “oh he’s rich and famous why would he NEED to do that? Must be a lie”. The lack of understanding that it not about struggling to get a woman. It’s about power and ego. Thinking that they are untouchable
I think it's more why would he choose to do that with a random normal woman? (Normal like not influencer or having any online following or clout.) Usually famous people choose to either have sex with other celebrities or prostitutes. When it comes to abusers they commonly choose prostitutes or people who have been trafficked as it is easier to scare them and force them to keep quiet. Choosing a random person is incredibly risky and just stupid.
Conor’s fiancée dragging Nikita for being that drunk and high etc surely only just drives the final nail into the coffin that Nikita was SA’d. If you’re that inebriated, you cannot consent regardless?? Similar situation happened with me (I was cross faded) and the Irish justice system is so fucked
Bruvva she didn’t go there off her head and knew what it was about, sending pics and suggesting they can link. What Conor did is bad yes and he should serve justice, but she is no better of a person considering she has a partner and child. Makes you think people are too comfortable doing this too. Women should be raising up and trying to inspire other women to do better and not feed into a man’s greed, we don’t care for your name at that point. This traumatic experience could’ve been easily avoided and we wouldn’t even have this story on RUclips if women just stayed home with their child and partner.
@@EvilJuice-uh6githe same can be said for him though no? He also had a kid and a partner at home. So that makes them just as bad, on that specific point. They both cheated on their partners. The sentence "what Connor did is bad yes and he should serve justice but she is no better of a person considering she has a partner and child." Absolutely boggles my mind. Because what you're basically saying is that infidelity is on the same level as violently sexually assaulting a person??? She may have gone there with the intend of having sex, but that doesn't negate the fact that she had something done to her WITHOUT her consent. "She shouldn't have gone to the hotel!" NO *HE* SHOULDN'T HAVE SEXUALLY ASSAULTED HER.
i was SA'd while in a relationship. my partner at the time struggled to believe me, he couldnt get past doubts that I'd cheated when I hadn't. People do reckless things, we all struggle with emotional regulation to some extent. She went to the penthouse but it doesnt mean she deserves this. we've all made poor judgements, but no one thinks they should be punished like this for their own mistakes. i dont see how with the brutal medical evidence this didnt go further with the police ffs
Speaking as a man, I think it depends on the situation (how it happened is a huge factor in how a bloke would react) like if you’re a woman and you’re just walking down the street and jumped / SA’d by a man, chances are your boyfriend isn’t going think you’ve cheated, they’re going to know you’ve been assaulted - but if you do what she did and go back to a penthouse, two men, two women (especially after texting him / sending him photos, which makes it worse still) the intention to cheat is obviously there, wether she did it or not, wether she was forced or did it willingly, she made a decision to go back to a penthouse (basically his hotel room) and that would absolutely make your partner believe you had the intention to cheat or that you had cheated (it’s how our brains work) if it happened to my GF and she went back somewhere, first of all I’d be devastated and secondly I wouldn’t be able to get the question out of my head as of “Why did you go back there / put yourself in danger, especially after all the warnings” - Regardless of any of this, obviously she shouldn’t have been assaulted and no means no, but women need to be really careful about the situations they get themselves into because sadly tonnes of men are fucking awful, and worse when they drink / take drugs. I warn my girlfriend all the time about men / how men are and how men can be - I am one, I work with them, I’ve grown up with them (and I’ve never met another man like me in my life, which to me is sad, because I genuinely show women respect and don’t act like a creep or say stupid things, even when with a group of other men and they’re all acting up, even when single I was always respectful of women’s boundaries, always) - the vast majority of men I know are ridiculously crass, say horrific things about women behind their backs, cheat on their other halves and are generally just perverted as fuck, so I generally believe most women when they talk about sexual assault (physical or verbal) and I always tell my girlfriend to be extremely careful, don’t go anywhere with anyone, only stay with your friends, come straight home when you’re done etc / don’t go anywhere that would put you in danger. Sadly you’re always going to get men that won’t take no for an answer, so you genuinely have to believe that any of them are capable of it, because they are, even though not all of them would. And McGregor has always come across to me as an absolute wanker piece of shit scumbag, so this doesn’t surprise me at all and he deserves everything he gets.
I have to say this was a hard watch, as someone who's been subjected to SA and R the evidence is overwhelming, to go through the whole court case and to STILL take it through to civil is proof alone she stands by what happened, and his statement afterwards is beyond disrespectful and basically slander I'm past words
This is actually horrifying, as if they didn’t prosecute him over the medical record alone. I hope Nikita gets criminal justice now she’s been able to get it proved civilly but she shouldn’t have had to go this way in the first place 😔 also I think she should get a petition for him to get criminally charged 😞
I totally believe he did it. He was lucky not to go to prison. All his supporters seem to think that makes him innocent but about 95% of rapist get away with it. This isn't his first rodeo. Guarantee he's done it before. Shame on his wife for standing by him.
@TerryMcLean-tg1jq have you considered that a man that does something so violent could be as violent at home? Many victims of domestic abuse keep quiet out of fear
Im honestly so happy that you made this video and had the perspective you have. I have close friends that have had similar experiences, as well as myself, so seeing this from a man is very refreshing. Especially with what's going on in the world for women at the moment
Thanks so very much for covering this. I’m actually ashamed to be Irish because of this animal. He should have been thrown in jail. There is no justice in this country. Unless you have money. Then you can get away with murder. Absolutely disgusting animal. And believe me there is more than him in this country.
This woman was so brave to do what she did. Thanks so much for covering this as well Cam. I work as a support worker for survivors of domestic abuse and this really gives me hope that the younger generation (I'm 40) are understanding things like this and holding men like this to account. And I love the point that she doesn't have to be a perfect person to be a victim of DA as that's what people use to discredit victims of DA and SA. You can have done any number of bad or questionable things and that doesn't mean that you haven't been abused.
Thanks for making this, Cam, and making it so well. I just want to highlight how well known it is that the criminal convictions rate for these sorts of crimes is outrageously low and that is the bigger issue here. Great that she found another route to justice, sad that the the majority of SA victims are also told by police "so unlikely to win a court case, probably best not to bother bringing one at all" just as she was. I wish I had an answer as to how to put this right, sadly I haven't
As an SA survivor, I am still impacted 30 years later after years of therapy. It doesn't fully go away. As someone with a uterus, no woman has sex with a tampon in. You are acutely aware of it being in the wrong spot and it's not comfortable. That alone is confirmation of force for me. No man is going to enjoy bonking a thick string, I assure you - men notice the tiny strings of an IUD deep up! The fact she can't remember James make me wonder if they screened her for GHB. I lost 45 minutes the night I was dosed. James saying they were together and her not remembering TBh is evidence of no consent - even if she was "just drunk" she was "too drunk to consent." The end. The perfect victim is such a myth and somehow is only a thing we do with DV and SA, crimes that disproportionately impact women. We don't ask robbery victims what they expected walking around with wallets full of money eg. I wonder why?
The simple fact is, if somebody is willing to go through the persecution that comes with reporting SA, the odds of them lying are ALWAYS incredibly slim. You always get abuse, you always lose people within your personal life, you always will get called a liar by a percentage of people, which is why so often it goes unreported.
Thank you for the update. It's appalling what Connor did. It raises the question: who else has he done this to? It's a strange situation. Do we empathize with Connor, or do you think she acted deliberately, just trying to make money? It's a sad situation, but I'm relieved she will receive justice.
I feel like the other thing we dont really talk about enough is that you can consent to sleeping with someone but if during the course of that, they do things you did not consent to, such as choking you like that, or if you tell them to stop at any point and they dont, its still SA.
I really appreciate you taking the time to make this video and act as a voice of reason. A lot of guys on this platform are saying some really vial things, so knowing we can enjoy your content without having to dodge insane takes is refreshing and reassuring. There are a lot of victims out there, like myself, who will be put a little at ease just by knowing where you stand on this case. You're a top lad Cam, and as always, Thank you for being wholesome and straight up good.
It doesn't matter how she ended up in his room. It doesn't matter that she had a family and partner at home. It doesn't matter what she was wearing OR even if she had agreed to sexual contact previously. The moment she said no, a line was drawn. The moment he stepped over that line, he broke the law and that is legally then sexual assault. I know she will have weighed up the pro's and cons of bringing the case, she will know that just by the accusations alone that essentially her entire life will be ruined. She still stood up and did what she felt she needed to do. My soul hurts for her. No amount of money will wipe away the stain of this whole situation. I hope she's gonna be ok.
Yes all those things do matter. it does matter if she cheats on her man. It's called adultery. SA is wrong, but so is being a whore and betraying your family. Both things matter.
@@monsterhuntervideos4446if you don’t consent ITS NOT CHEATING. Cheating is a conscious intentional act. Being r*ped is not. Give ur head a wobble mate
Cam, i appreciate your sensitivity in how you covered this and, in my perspective (as a victim), you are doing a great thing by voicing your opinion and support for Nikita not just for her but for all victims. 💖
You know what before even continuing I want To point out that he hasn’t apologised to Nikita but instead tried to shift the blame and make himself seem innocent by talking about his wife this man is absolutely vile words cannot express how disgusting I find this person to be able to do that to someone and expect no consequences its disgusting that the uk law sytem will let go the offender but then shame the victim and especially if the offender is well known or a “man of god” and they don’t believe the victims because they are “average” “old” “untrustworthy “ or just looking for money 19:28
I don't lkke Connor Mcgrgor but either account could be true, I am not convinced. And she just forgot the other fella having a go. The boyfriend was waiting to tape record her, he didn't believe her. She told too many lies.
@@paulrigby7135this has been in Irish news since 2018. Both were anonymously reported but we knew who it was. This is 6 years of a lie? Yeah I doubt it. She had men break into her house with knives. Not a random coincidence. Those who side with him are as bad. He's been arrested in many countries for a reason.. because he's a serial r**pist
No woman EVER has gained anything positive from reporting SA. It's wild people think they do it for money. Like pissing off someone rich and powerful is a good move. Props to her for not giving up. On the another note - is it just me, or is almost every single famous men proved to be some sort of violent creep recently??
Stumbled on this video. You are truly incredible in explaining things and I know it will feel uncomfortable speaking about a woman but your compassion and clear researched makes our hearts swell. You do an incredible job of not being biased and just a great person you are ❤
@@CamKirkham I know but in reality it’s actually sad that this famous man would first off use his body and training to pin her down and also just because he is famous he wants to be cleared like how dare he it is actually disgusting
He has a history of physically assaulting people outside of the ring. Even to the point that he attempted to injure his opponent before the match. And now he definitely misses the ring because he is constantly coked up and can't get a match
I honestly love these video's they give so much more info rather than trying to find it myself and getting false information or agenda type bs and i honestly appreciate the effort you put in these videos cause just doing the research for this must be draining
Also being from the uk and these things are happening all the time doesn’t make you feel very safe all of the time like I’m from Birmingham and i am now in London and both those parts of the uk are not the safest parts sadly but it is getting better I guess but it is still very bad
Just because she went back to the hotel with him doesn’t mean to say that she was willing to engage in anything other than having drinks. She was probably just delighted that he remembered her from the days that he wasn’t famous but he just saw an opportunity. An absolute animal and of course when she first reported it she wouldn’t have been believed because he is the great Conor mcgregor. One of the greatest Irish exports so he is untouchable. The poor woman didn’t stand a chance against him and the Irish government
Oh come on, she was sending flirty messages and went to his hotel room late. She could have just sent words and met up for lunch or something if it was platonic. I strongly believe it is more beneficial to acknowledge that she was flirting and probably was going to sleep with him. However when she changed her mind consent was revoked and he should have just accepted that and not done anything. Just because someone is expecting to get laid doesn't mean when they get tuned down they should SA someone.
I am sorry but this is not how the world fucking works, can we all stop lying to eachother, lets not act like women never ooz and awe over famous men all the time, can you imagine how many messages he gets a day from women wanting sex? she sent him spicy photos of herself multiple in fact and then they went to a hotel...anyone with a actual braincell would assume sex is going to happen (consensual of course). Conor mcgregor a fucking wanker yes but she's just as bad for cheating and leaving her kids at home. get out your feelings and look at the facts, and no I aint on about a tampon lol
Turned into my absolute favourite content creator mate. Level headed, great opinions and loving the journo style videos bro. Have a boss rest of weekend fella
honestly thank u for calling it situation and not a drama, i hate when horrible situations like this are named as drama when its such a traumatic event
The fact that she doesn’t even remember sleeping with the other guy makes me think they never even did and he’s already sold his soul to Connor so he’s lying to make her case weaker.
It's the slutshaming for women that gets me. As soon as a woman comes forward every sexual partner she has ever had gets dragged up. Clothing choices etc. it's a total witch-hunt
Were slutshaming conor too dont get it twisted, hes foul for the way he treats his family I have 0 respect for him. But i also have 0 respect for mothers that entice men to pick them up for "fun" when they have a partner an kids at home. the double standards is a joke, women should be scrutinised you all get away with murder and this is a perfect example. Sex is easy for women to acquire hence why it is scrutinised more heavily when something like this happens.
Controversial opinion: having sent him photos of herself, going up to his hotel room at 6am inebriated and knowing he was ordering more drinks and condoms, what did she go up to that room for? What he did was despicable, but all things considered why would you even put yourself in that situation in the first place? People nowadays are lacking common sense and then surprised when bad, very predictable things happen 🤷♀️
Because she was willing to begin with doesn’t mean she can’t be sexually assaulted. It’s that ignorant attitude that makes women fearful of coming forward. You can consent to intercourse with a person once, but then deny them a second time. And if they still carry on with the act, it’s assault. End of story.
Helloooo, really wanted to cover this situation as i know it will be quite important to a lot of you watching! There's a lot of dark things mentioned in this video so if you're struggling with anything mentioned in this video pls do reach out to somebody because it can do the world of good. Much love donuts x
Please don't shout out his businesses, he's an absolute pile of shit and a humiliating blip on our broken justice system
@CamKirkham First to reply! Love ur videos keep up the work gorgeous donuts 🍩
Please do more vids like this Cam, your empathy, none bias, and make it easier to understand everything, is brilliant! I'll watch what ever u do as I really like your content, but I do enjoy these , thank you , take care ! X
A woman should not be able to sue for criminal conduct that Police refuse to level criminal charges for due to lack of evidence. This was a joke, she was clearly all over both men in CCTV footage and her own friend even claimed she was lying.
You should do more research on a case like this before posting. Yes conor mcgregor is a foul human being, but there is too much gaping holes in her story and lack of evidence, literally anyone with 2 threads of common sense can see this is a cash grab. Nearly all my law friends say the same thing here in Ireland. I personally think their both rotten humans in general just he is getting more flack because he is a bloke, when in reality she left her man at home with her children to go and get smashed and party, also she left and then returned??? in this day and age when it's "see something say something" and "we have the power", yet she went back to a so called rapist? not fucking with this one cam lmao
The guy that was like 'she's partying for days with a three year old at home!' seems to forget that Conor was also out partying with an even younger kid at home (just googled it and his first kid was born in 2017 and this happened in 2018) The double standards are screaming misogyny
they dont care about what a man does. a man can sexually assault a woman but if the woman is a bad mother that means that it doesnt matter that she got sa'ed to these men.
@@Louca-pv9ne lunatic, no one saying a man can sexually assault anyone thats deluded. Fact is there was NO WHERE NEAR enough evidence for a conviction, her best friend testified calling her a liar and one of the accused was found innocent based on the same evidence. Absolutely no one is defending mcgregor he's a dickhead and a sad excuse of a man the way he treats his family, but lets call a spade a spade SHE left the hotel and went right back there for more "fun", there's more holes in this story than anything. Blatant cash grab. The fact your all trying to misdirect the accountability to one person is astounding, no you go girl get that bag queen...SMH.
Absolutely. Every argument waged against the victim are easily applied to Conor. Also, she doesn’t have 4 allegations of SA against her.
and also Dee was deeply pregnant with his second at the time.
They all made horrible decisions. It doesn’t mean she deserves to be r*ped. You can’t just be friends with men unfortunately there’s no such thing she probably didn’t even know he ordered condoms.
Im so fed up of people saying "she went back to a hotel what did she expect". I went to a hotel with a guy i knew with every intention to have sex. Midway through he started getting really violent, slapped me in the face so hard my lip split and i was left covered in bruises. As soon as it becomes violent without consent its SA.
After that experience i was completely normal until i got home and got into bed, then i realised what had happened and was devastated.
I had a similar experience, took a while to come to terms with what happened. You are so strong and honestly amazing for speaking on this as well because so many people think "oh she was with it when they started" then blame the victim for the things that happen after the initial consent. It takes so much courage to open up about something so personal and painful, I hope you know how much your voice matters and how you are not alone with an experience like this
@thesmurfman14 I bet you find yourself mansplaining and talking about SA and rape a lot. You enjoy it, don't you?
@@thesmurfman14Agree
@@thesmurfman14no dude , because if he didn’t say to her he was going to be rough then you can’t consider it as consensual. It’s like doing something completely different to what was started and then because the person is being roughed up , a person will be in fear. Think of it like a robbery , a person puts a knife to your throat so you hand them your phone , are you consenting to this ? No you are not, but you are in fear. Hope that has helped your understanding.
@@6_00pmm one issue here ya. Consenting to sex’s is like me asking the guy with a knife to come in to my house to put the knife to my neck. Does that clear your understanding up? two dudes did put a Skinning knife up to my neck. I told them cut deep because I got about 5 seconds to stab everyone around me while I go down. I meant every word and they fukd off.
So defenders say, she cheated therefore she can't be trusted. Take that and flip it, Conor cheated, therefore he can't be trusted. The "logic" falls apart
But conor isn’t trying to claim he got SA’d. Nobody is denying conor cheated (or maybe he didn’t cheat because he might have an open relationship). Point is she is claiming being a victim when she isn’t.
@@scottsterling4713 How do you know she isn’t? Were you in the room when it all happened?
@@scottsterling4713 Conor is claiming it never happened.
Please don't speak in facts like you know categorically what happened.
@@gilbej91 huh? What the hell are you on about? You made a ridiculous claim that people don’t believe her cause she cheated. That’s not true because. People don’t believe her cause her story does add up and there are heaps of inconsistencies.
@@scottsterling4713 all women who accuse men of SA must be believed and all men must be found guilty, that’s the rule in modern day society😂 it’s so obvious she wasn’t SA’d and more likely that she just regretted cheating on her partner. That happens so much in these cases where women cheat, regret it so they just throw the R word around.
so people not believing Nikita because she cheated on her partner but believing Connor even though he willingly cheated on his gf too? Double standarts much...
🚬➕️🔥🟰McDiddy
From Notorious to McDiddy
men and women are not the same , if connor was a forklift driver she would be sending him sexy pic's saying come and get me
Noooo… people aren’t believing her because she stuck around and continued partying and hooked up with Conor’s friend AFTER Conor supposedly SAed her. Not to mention her friend testified against her saying everything seemed fine afterwards. So why would a woman who was SAed, continue partying and hook up after?..
@@BigJugsRule92 You know absolutely nothing about se*ual assault.
@@BigJugsRule92when someone threatens to kill you, and if you’re high which can make you more paranoid (aka more likely to fully believe he actually will do it) continuing to do what you believe will keep you ‘safe’ is not strange behaviour. it’s a response like fight/flight/freeze called fawn. how was she to know that connor and his friend hadn’t planned something like this? or that his friend would also threaten to kill her. it’s not far fetched to assume that a friend of someone who’s violent is also violent
As an Irish woman this whole court case makes me sick to the stomach. I never liked him and Cam you are so right about the fact that €250k wouldn’t even make a dent in his pocket. He is a man with power and uses that to his advantage like most men with power do
Disliking somine is not reason to find them guilty of a crime that Police deemed there was insufficient evidence to prove and the accuser was found to not be credible for obvious reasons.
Most people , power corrupts everyone
SO nikita hand is a saint ? haha
@ I’m not saying she’s a saint either bc at the end of the day she cheated on her partner at the time. But what he done to her is way more extreme than her cheating on her bf
@@aislingmckelvey9633 Oh I forgot you were there.
Really enjoying your venture into more journalistic style videos. From the XO era to now, there’s such growth; you’ve never lost that humility and you’ve stayed grounded. Rare that, and we love to see it. Big love :)
This is so lovely! Really appreciate you sticking around on the journey
@@CamKirkhamlocked in champ.
I only recently started watching this guy, and earlier in I stumbled upon one of his old old videos like I'm talking 6 years ago. He's for sure come a long way in terms of productions and presentation style. 👍🏻
@@CamKirkhamWhy are you so biased?, there's CCTV footage showing that after the so-called SA she was happy and when Coner left, she even slept with Lawrence she was also caught on CCTV flirting with Lawrence not to mention the people in the surrounding rooms heard no screaming nor a plea for help, I just don't get how people can believe a story with so many holes in it, as for the tampon she probably left it in and just forgot to take it out many women have claimed that they personally know other women that have done the same thing before sex, and the bruises that we're on her could've came from anywhere, my personal opinion is she went home the ex boyfriend found out she committed infidelity and he beat her although it's just a theory because I don't have evidence, not to mention if Coner actually hit her don't you think she would've been dead considering Coner hits fully grown men for a living and he can knock those men out in seconds, and just for the record Coner wasn't found guilty of grape he was found liable for the injuries she had but most people are making it seem like it's already a proven fact that he graped her...
His behaviour towards random women in clubs says it all, imagine a man going up to another man and pulling his hair so hard his head is yanked back or slapping/groping him without asking. I wouldn’t even need to see anything else to know he’s got no respect or boundaries.
And while I understand the law has standards for evidence, every woman watching this knows he’s guilty and that she won’t be the only woman it’s happened to or at least not the last. I bet others come forward now…
since you said this was a safe space:
I had an ex who repeatedly assaulted me, including a time when was choking me out & I couldn't breathe. I genuinely thought I was gonna die.
I've been avoiding the conor mcgregor story bc the fact that YET ANOTHER person in a position of power is an abuser makes me want to stop existing in this world. Hearing that someone who went thru an experience that I can relate to got justice makes me feel a little bit better.
@@wormoking I hope your doing better now no one deserves that and know u are lived
Hope you are OK. It's good to let it out an I'm glad this has brought you some confidence
I'm sorry to hear your experience was such a bad one. I hope by sharing your story it's helped you somewhat ❤
lots of my ex say i hurt them too but in reality borderline personality is a thing and crazy woman are real more believable than the big foot himself. Woman play the victim too much nowdays This is another Andrew tate case imo.
@@TRUTHabouttheagenda2024so you’re admitting to being a sex predator on RUclips. Geesh
imagine how scary it must be to have something like this happen to you by someone with such a big media presence, the amount of courage that takes to speak out is phenomenal. my heart goes out to nikita :((
Your heart goes out to someone who intentionally cheated on her boyfriend, then tried to claim SA out of regret?
Grow up child
@@rusty5078 here come XY's with their nonsense. Unable to take accountability for themselves no matter how poorly they behave, defending similar men as fervently as they would defend themselves because they've probably done the same thing.
Bro Conor is innocent of this one, he has done this before though
Your heart should go out to the victims of Conor not nikkita
@@rusty5078no they made a medical check up on her rape leave trace by the way
it's awful how many people are totally unwilling to believe SA victims who aren't the mythical "perfect victim." sometimes it feels like that never really changes. but you're absolutely right that Nikita Hand has done something so courageous and genuinely groundbreaking. thanks for covering this with the compassion and thoughtfulness that you always have!
It's quite fascinating how differently the genders are treated when it comes to accountability. If SA happens when a woman is drunk, that's her fault, what did she expect? If a man forces himself on a woman while drunk, absolutely no way can he be held accountable! He was inebriated, after all, he couldn't control his own actions!!!
A woman trusts a man who ends up hurting her? "What did you expect? He's a man!" "You should have chosen better!". Always. Always It's her fault. But when a guy harms women, so many others rush to his defence.
I'm tired of this double standard dudes have, that they can push all the accountability onto the woman and he'll never be held accountable all while they scream that's what women need to do. How much more accountability do women need, exactly? We are blamed for literally everything men do to us no matter what it is. "Like a compass points north, a man's accusing finger will find a woman," ig.
She didn't bang the other guy eirher
I would argue we have been atleast for the last 15 years now been taking women's word at face value and instantly condemning and judging the accused before seeing any sort of VALID evidence. their both foul human beings for cheating on their partners and embarrassing their families in this way, but it is a cash grab pure and simple there wasn't enough evidence for a criminal trial so she thought she would try her luck in civil. Any irony that James was found innocent of the same charge with the same evidence? We need to hold more lying cheating women accountable to, your all screaming for "equality", such bullshit....
The Police didn't even believe her, the evidence and other witnesses went against her story.
@@sarahwales6276 police rarely ever believe sexual assault victims. Do you live under a rock or do you think the police is always right?
the tampon thing ALONE is enough for me to be certain he assaulted her.
Yeah, no woman would willingly let that happen. It’s heartbreaking
1000%, i want to believe all victims to begin with, when he started to get into the story i did have some doubts, but when evidence of the severity of the bruising where the EMT was concerned + the tampon being in at ALL is plenty enough to prove that it wasn't consensual, because even if she went in w the intention of cheating (which i dont condone at all i think all cheaters should go to hell), she would have stopped him the moment it went in because tampons themselves can hurt u like hell, i could only imagine mustve been unbearable pain she was probably crying the whole time 😢
Yeah (shamefully) I thought it was a cash grab until I found out about the tampon. Poor woman
@@lyssalynn1017I am not saying she is lying and the bruising is bad. But I want to point out that there are a lot of women who get drunk or/and high and forget to take their tampon out. Many of them have sex without realising, presumably being intoxicated dulling their senses but a lot of them also don't notice the day/after either. A lot actually don't realize until they get an infection, pain due to their body attempting to reject the tampon, or even go into toxic shock. Also how much women physically feel things varies a lot, some can't stand the menstrual cup because they constantly feel it, where as others can't feel it at all.
She was on a 3 day bender away from her child and partner sending nudes to a man then going to a hotel with him and if the apparent CCTV is true where she had a sausage in her mouth in the lift then I wouldn't believe a word she says and as for the comment saying you want to believe all victims is absolutely dumb especially against men with money or did the whole deal with the amber and jonny depp case not show you the heights women will go to to destroy a man especially a famous one
HE had a kid too. No matter what she did, what the situation was, SA will never be justified. Smh. Shameful.
As a victim of SA myself knowing that the guy will never face justice, nothing but respect for her💔♥
Also what do you think of the new background? Will be returning to standing soon just need to sort out desk haha
I think it’s so different to the original one so hard to compare. I personally think both are great, as a RUclipsr the way you respond and react is very vocal, so it’s not essential to look at your face to see your expressions. However you do clearly speak with your face too, the new background being darker actually focuses us more on your face when we do watch.
I did like the old background seeing stuff there but equally like how the new one focuses us to look at your expressions. It also enhances the expressions thus making it look more expressive and reactive.
God I’m such a nerd, but thank you for always looking to improve the channel for yourself and us.
It’s like you moved the plant closer just because I kept asking about it in the comments. I love it. 🤣☺️
There is a LOT of plant 🤷🏻♀️ I love the background... Would prefer less of the triffid though..
I love it! It’s very warm and calming-
It's so cozy and cute I love it
Fun Fact: I called out MMA for letting some dodgy people slide through the cracks and all I got was trolling about my appearance and queerness.
Some sports fans would rather be in awe of hateful monsters than listen to the truth.

That tracks…… not a lot of intelligent good people on social media 😅 they just rage bait people with BS
You are talking about people that put themselves in a cage to get there face repeatedly beat by an opponent who wants to knock them unconscious…. You can’t expect it not to have so absolute animals involved
You'll find dodgy people in every aspect of life, you don't have to look that hard.
Life always finds a way to show those clowns how wrong they are.
The fact people are still defending him is crazy
Seemed innocent
I am no fan of Conor but a civil case is about opinions rather than beyond all doubt.
@@frankiekl87 pretty much, conors reputation is awful (deservedly so) the jury was 8 women 4 men, it's obvious what the outcome was gonna be
@@dylanmcgroarty949 like I said I’m not a fan. But I lost faith in court system when Johnny depp lost his case in the uk.
@@frankiekl87 yeah civil court is too opinion based for me, after looking over the details, I thought Conor was innocent
I can’t read the comment sections on any video related to this case on TikTok because it’s full of men calling her a liar!! They could have all the evidence in the world and they’d still defend him! Only when it’s their mum, sister or partner.. they care 🙄
"Like a compass points north, a man's accusing finger will always find a woman"
@@fawnieeeno more corruption...💪👎
but in this case they don't have all the evidence in the world and in fact there is a lot of evidence countering the fact that he's guilty. I feel like a lot of people have also switched sides as the last big case like this was Depp vs amber and we know amber ended up lying about pretty much everything. I'm not saying conor is innocent but there isn't conclusive evidence on either side of the case so I don't think people should be making their mind up either way yet
@berennicholas5003 so no physical evidence weird no trace!?

People who say “why did she expect?” worry me
Also, if she was so drunk that she couldn’t remember it… she was obviously too drunk to consent to sex
But can clearly remember being assaulted. Please.
@ but his friend said he also had sex with her, and she cannot remember that.
@ also they both admitted she was high and drunk, she cannot consent when under the influence, that is the law
I think what is confusing and doesn't make her look great is the fact she can remember somethings absolutely perfectly yet has no recollection of others.
@@Luan_Roos she was probably getting more and more drunk and high as the night went whats so confusing about that?
I have to say I'm really really impressed with your empathy towards Nikita and what she went through; it's a rare thing to see this level of understanding. I'm also thankful that you brought up the after-effects that victims go through, as well -- so many people don't get that this sort of this doesn't just happen to you and then it's done; it goes on and on, sometimes for years. It's really validating to hear that explained ♥
Absolutely, this is such a refreshing take especially from a man to really empathize with the ramifications. I know him being a survivor helps but nonetheless it’s really wonderful to see and so validating to hear.
I never heard back from the police personally. I filed the police report, did the medical exam, had the photos, the police interview and then nothing. I tried a few times to see if the case had any updates, but then I moved and I just gave up. I can say, I don't know a single woman who would have s*x with a tampon in. That alone makes he think this was not a conscious decision. The report from the paramedic too. There is no such thing as a perfect victim and you can't just disregard what she went trough because of her flaws.
Cam is the most empathetic and in touch RUclipsr I have come across, it’s so refreshing
THE NEW BACKGROUND LOOKS MINT
The part about the tampon was so horrific. I immediately started to tear up and breathe heavy because that level of trauma is beyond disgusting.
I cannot stand the people who pull the “oh he’s rich and famous why would he NEED to do that? Must be a lie”. The lack of understanding that it not about struggling to get a woman. It’s about power and ego. Thinking that they are untouchable
Yeah he's ego person ufc followers know that but this is both side mistake
I think it's more why would he choose to do that with a random normal woman? (Normal like not influencer or having any online following or clout.) Usually famous people choose to either have sex with other celebrities or prostitutes. When it comes to abusers they commonly choose prostitutes or people who have been trafficked as it is easier to scare them and force them to keep quiet. Choosing a random person is incredibly risky and just stupid.
Conor’s fiancée dragging Nikita for being that drunk and high etc surely only just drives the final nail into the coffin that Nikita was SA’d. If you’re that inebriated, you cannot consent regardless?? Similar situation happened with me (I was cross faded) and the Irish justice system is so fucked
Bruvva she didn’t go there off her head and knew what it was about, sending pics and suggesting they can link. What Conor did is bad yes and he should serve justice, but she is no better of a person considering she has a partner and child. Makes you think people are too comfortable doing this too. Women should be raising up and trying to inspire other women to do better and not feed into a man’s greed, we don’t care for your name at that point. This traumatic experience could’ve been easily avoided and we wouldn’t even have this story on RUclips if women just stayed home with their child and partner.
@@EvilJuice-uh6githe same can be said for him though no? He also had a kid and a partner at home. So that makes them just as bad, on that specific point. They both cheated on their partners. The sentence "what Connor did is bad yes and he should serve justice but she is no better of a person considering she has a partner and child." Absolutely boggles my mind. Because what you're basically saying is that infidelity is on the same level as violently sexually assaulting a person???
She may have gone there with the intend of having sex, but that doesn't negate the fact that she had something done to her WITHOUT her consent. "She shouldn't have gone to the hotel!" NO *HE* SHOULDN'T HAVE SEXUALLY ASSAULTED HER.
@@EvilJuice-uh6gi even cheating isn’t an excuse to violently assault someone… they are not crimes of the same damn severity
@@EvilJuice-uh6gi In this case the man should also stay at home with their child and partner? Women know your limits! 🙄
i was SA'd while in a relationship. my partner at the time struggled to believe me, he couldnt get past doubts that I'd cheated when I hadn't. People do reckless things, we all struggle with emotional regulation to some extent. She went to the penthouse but it doesnt mean she deserves this. we've all made poor judgements, but no one thinks they should be punished like this for their own mistakes. i dont see how with the brutal medical evidence this didnt go further with the police ffs
Speaking as a man, I think it depends on the situation (how it happened is a huge factor in how a bloke would react) like if you’re a woman and you’re just walking down the street and jumped / SA’d by a man, chances are your boyfriend isn’t going think you’ve cheated, they’re going to know you’ve been assaulted - but if you do what she did and go back to a penthouse, two men, two women (especially after texting him / sending him photos, which makes it worse still) the intention to cheat is obviously there, wether she did it or not, wether she was forced or did it willingly, she made a decision to go back to a penthouse (basically his hotel room) and that would absolutely make your partner believe you had the intention to cheat or that you had cheated (it’s how our brains work) if it happened to my GF and she went back somewhere, first of all I’d be devastated and secondly I wouldn’t be able to get the question out of my head as of “Why did you go back there / put yourself in danger, especially after all the warnings” - Regardless of any of this, obviously she shouldn’t have been assaulted and no means no, but women need to be really careful about the situations they get themselves into because sadly tonnes of men are fucking awful, and worse when they drink / take drugs.
I warn my girlfriend all the time about men / how men are and how men can be - I am one, I work with them, I’ve grown up with them (and I’ve never met another man like me in my life, which to me is sad, because I genuinely show women respect and don’t act like a creep or say stupid things, even when with a group of other men and they’re all acting up, even when single I was always respectful of women’s boundaries, always) - the vast majority of men I know are ridiculously crass, say horrific things about women behind their backs, cheat on their other halves and are generally just perverted as fuck, so I generally believe most women when they talk about sexual assault (physical or verbal) and I always tell my girlfriend to be extremely careful, don’t go anywhere with anyone, only stay with your friends, come straight home when you’re done etc / don’t go anywhere that would put you in danger.
Sadly you’re always going to get men that won’t take no for an answer, so you genuinely have to believe that any of them are capable of it, because they are, even though not all of them would.
And McGregor has always come across to me as an absolute wanker piece of shit scumbag, so this doesn’t surprise me at all and he deserves everything he gets.
I have to say this was a hard watch, as someone who's been subjected to SA and R the evidence is overwhelming, to go through the whole court case and to STILL take it through to civil is proof alone she stands by what happened, and his statement afterwards is beyond disrespectful and basically slander I'm past words
This is actually horrifying, as if they didn’t prosecute him over the medical record alone. I hope Nikita gets criminal justice now she’s been able to get it proved civilly but she shouldn’t have had to go this way in the first place 😔 also I think she should get a petition for him to get criminally charged 😞
I totally believe he did it. He was lucky not to go to prison. All his supporters seem to think that makes him innocent but about 95% of rapist get away with it. This isn't his first rodeo. Guarantee he's done it before. Shame on his wife for standing by him.
The fact that his girlfriend just blindly supports him is hilarious to me. She is so deep in it she can’t get out.
Shes not blind shes just like him
Iv kno idea where her heads at ! She probably has more to gain staying with him than leaving him £ ??
@TerryMcLean-tg1jq have you considered that a man that does something so violent could be as violent at home? Many victims of domestic abuse keep quiet out of fear

Im honestly so happy that you made this video and had the perspective you have. I have close friends that have had similar experiences, as well as myself, so seeing this from a man is very refreshing. Especially with what's going on in the world for women at the moment
I appreciate how respectful you are when talking on these types of topics. Completely agree with you
He actually used Jiu-Jitsu to S.A a woman... That's fu*king nuts!
Thanks so very much for covering this. I’m actually ashamed to be Irish because of this animal. He should have been thrown in jail. There is no justice in this country. Unless you have money. Then you can get away with murder. Absolutely disgusting animal. And believe me there is more than him in this country.

She wasn’t the only victim, others may come forward
what golddiggers
@shamusshamus6251 imagine supporting a rapist. freak
Oh they 100% will. Men like that don’t strike once.
Love that you sprinkle in some heavy topics. These videos would be great times to add a fundraiser for a charity that can help victims of SA.
This woman was so brave to do what she did. Thanks so much for covering this as well Cam. I work as a support worker for survivors of domestic abuse and this really gives me hope that the younger generation (I'm 40) are understanding things like this and holding men like this to account. And I love the point that she doesn't have to be a perfect person to be a victim of DA as that's what people use to discredit victims of DA and SA. You can have done any number of bad or questionable things and that doesn't mean that you haven't been abused.
Thanks for making this, Cam, and making it so well.
I just want to highlight how well known it is that the criminal convictions rate for these sorts of crimes is outrageously low and that is the bigger issue here.
Great that she found another route to justice, sad that the the majority of SA victims are also told by police "so unlikely to win a court case, probably best not to bother bringing one at all" just as she was.
I wish I had an answer as to how to put this right, sadly I haven't
Appreciate your take on such topics. It must be hard emotionally for you making the serious vids but you do a great job. Thank you.
❤️🙌🏻
As an SA survivor, I am still impacted 30 years later after years of therapy. It doesn't fully go away. As someone with a uterus, no woman has sex with a tampon in. You are acutely aware of it being in the wrong spot and it's not comfortable. That alone is confirmation of force for me. No man is going to enjoy bonking a thick string, I assure you - men notice the tiny strings of an IUD deep up! The fact she can't remember James make me wonder if they screened her for GHB. I lost 45 minutes the night I was dosed. James saying they were together and her not remembering TBh is evidence of no consent - even if she was "just drunk" she was "too drunk to consent." The end.
The perfect victim is such a myth and somehow is only a thing we do with DV and SA, crimes that disproportionately impact women. We don't ask robbery victims what they expected walking around with wallets full of money eg. I wonder why?
thank you for covering this
After hearing details like the extensive bruises on her body and the tampon situation….HOW WAS THIS NOT ENOUGH EVIDENCE TO GO TO CRIMINAL COURT?
so happy u uploaded! background is sixk
Thank you!
had a class week and i put it down to how active cam has been
The simple fact is, if somebody is willing to go through the persecution that comes with reporting SA, the odds of them lying are ALWAYS incredibly slim. You always get abuse, you always lose people within your personal life, you always will get called a liar by a percentage of people, which is why so often it goes unreported.
Thank you for the update. It's appalling what Connor did. It raises the question: who else has he done this to? It's a strange situation. Do we empathize with Connor, or do you think she acted deliberately, just trying to make money? It's a sad situation, but I'm relieved she will receive justice.
I feel like the other thing we dont really talk about enough is that you can consent to sleeping with someone but if during the course of that, they do things you did not consent to, such as choking you like that, or if you tell them to stop at any point and they dont, its still SA.
I really appreciate you taking the time to make this video and act as a voice of reason. A lot of guys on this platform are saying some really vial things, so knowing we can enjoy your content without having to dodge insane takes is refreshing and reassuring. There are a lot of victims out there, like myself, who will be put a little at ease just by knowing where you stand on this case. You're a top lad Cam, and as always, Thank you for being wholesome and straight up good.
purposely avoided hearing about this so i could get it from cam
Funny they call her out for cheating but not him
It doesn't matter how she ended up in his room. It doesn't matter that she had a family and partner at home. It doesn't matter what she was wearing OR even if she had agreed to sexual contact previously. The moment she said no, a line was drawn. The moment he stepped over that line, he broke the law and that is legally then sexual assault. I know she will have weighed up the pro's and cons of bringing the case, she will know that just by the accusations alone that essentially her entire life will be ruined. She still stood up and did what she felt she needed to do. My soul hurts for her. No amount of money will wipe away the stain of this whole situation. I hope she's gonna be ok.
Yes all those things do matter. it does matter if she cheats on her man. It's called adultery. SA is wrong, but so is being a whore and betraying your family. Both things matter.
@@monsterhuntervideos4446if you don’t consent ITS NOT CHEATING. Cheating is a conscious intentional act. Being r*ped is not. Give ur head a wobble mate
Knew you'd cook with the background Cam it looks mint
Haha thanks! Spent ages on it 😂
@CamKirkham was 💯 worth it!!
I swear I dont know about anything till cam posts and tells me what's going on 😂😂
Cam, i appreciate your sensitivity in how you covered this and, in my perspective (as a victim), you are doing a great thing by voicing your opinion and support for Nikita not just for her but for all victims. 💖
You know what before even continuing I want To point out that he hasn’t apologised to Nikita but instead tried to shift the blame and make himself seem innocent by talking about his wife this man is absolutely vile words cannot express how disgusting I find this person to be able to do that to someone and expect no consequences its disgusting that the uk law sytem will let go the offender but then shame the victim and especially if the offender is well known or a “man of god” and they don’t believe the victims because they are “average” “old” “untrustworthy “ or just looking for money 19:28
I don't lkke Connor Mcgrgor but either account could be true, I am not convinced. And she just forgot the other fella having a go. The boyfriend was waiting to tape record her, he didn't believe her. She told too many lies.
@@paulrigby7135this has been in Irish news since 2018. Both were anonymously reported but we knew who it was. This is 6 years of a lie? Yeah I doubt it. She had men break into her house with knives. Not a random coincidence. Those who side with him are as bad. He's been arrested in many countries for a reason.. because he's a serial r**pist
There’s people saying McGregor is innocent because it was civil court and not criminal court
That is legally true.
I think personally it started off as consenual, and then when he started getting too violent/too rough she wanted to stop which is where it became SA.
No woman EVER has gained anything positive from reporting SA. It's wild people think they do it for money. Like pissing off someone rich and powerful is a good move. Props to her for not giving up.
On the another note - is it just me, or is almost every single famous men proved to be some sort of violent creep recently??
I really enjoy your summaries Cam! Even a tough topic like this you’ve covered it really well.
The double champ in fact can't do whatever the fuck he wants
Didn’t age well
love u cam. the fact that you make so much effort to upload daily and use ur platform for shits, gigs and awareness is amazing x
Backround tho
Stumbled on this video. You are truly incredible in explaining things and I know it will feel uncomfortable speaking about a woman but your compassion and clear researched makes our hearts swell. You do an incredible job of not being biased and just a great person you are ❤
Well done cam, your empathy is what makes you humanise this case especially.
just started the vid, love the background. looking forward to watching your take on this
This is actually so sad and dark because he could’ve done anything to her as he is a trained boxer 😢
Especially with some of the things he says that we mention.. crazy
@@CamKirkham I know but in reality it’s actually sad that this famous man would first off use his body and training to pin her down and also just because he is famous he wants to be cleared like how dare he it is actually disgusting
We’ll it’s kind of been proven by cctv that he is innocent of this case. However he did do it to another women in 2019
He has a history of physically assaulting people outside of the ring. Even to the point that he attempted to injure his opponent before the match. And now he definitely misses the ring because he is constantly coked up and can't get a match
@@CrchtCoreI have one doubts he high 💊right
I honestly love these video's they give so much more info rather than trying to find it myself and getting false information or agenda type bs and i honestly appreciate the effort you put in these videos cause just doing the research for this must be draining
Also being from the uk and these things are happening all the time doesn’t make you feel very safe all of the time like I’m from Birmingham and i am now in London and both those parts of the uk are not the safest parts sadly but it is getting better I guess but it is still very bad
Amazing work Cam, so nuanced and sensitive to the topic, well done xx
yet another disturbing situation, amazing work cam
The background upgrade is wild ❤️🔥
Just because she went back to the hotel with him doesn’t mean to say that she was willing to engage in anything other than having drinks. She was probably just delighted that he remembered her from the days that he wasn’t famous but he just saw an opportunity. An absolute animal and of course when she first reported it she wouldn’t have been believed because he is the great Conor mcgregor. One of the greatest Irish exports so he is untouchable. The poor woman didn’t stand a chance against him and the Irish government
Oh come on, she was sending flirty messages and went to his hotel room late. She could have just sent words and met up for lunch or something if it was platonic.
I strongly believe it is more beneficial to acknowledge that she was flirting and probably was going to sleep with him. However when she changed her mind consent was revoked and he should have just accepted that and not done anything. Just because someone is expecting to get laid doesn't mean when they get tuned down they should SA someone.
I am sorry but this is not how the world fucking works, can we all stop lying to eachother, lets not act like women never ooz and awe over famous men all the time, can you imagine how many messages he gets a day from women wanting sex? she sent him spicy photos of herself multiple in fact and then they went to a hotel...anyone with a actual braincell would assume sex is going to happen (consensual of course). Conor mcgregor a fucking wanker yes but she's just as bad for cheating and leaving her kids at home. get out your feelings and look at the facts, and no I aint on about a tampon lol
THE BACKGROUND😱 it looks so good!
Thank you!!
BACKGROUND IS FIRE CAM 🔥
Thank you!
Turned into my absolute favourite content creator mate. Level headed, great opinions and loving the journo style videos bro. Have a boss rest of weekend fella
150k is a joke and doesn’t affect him at all…so ZERO lessons learned
Well he cant go anywhere without being called a,rapest
Moneywise no but he is being dragged over the coals herein Ireland. His reputation is in tatters and he has been dropped from so many companies.
Thank you for your sensitivity while covering this ❤
Nikita is very brave.
she was brave snorting all that cocaine with 2 strange men in a hotel room whilst texting her partner at home with her kid
honestly thank u for calling it situation and not a drama, i hate when horrible situations like this are named as drama when its such a traumatic event
James Lawrence looks like a BTEC version of Dexter...
i really enjoy your commentating cam, thank you for shedding light on topics that people shy away from
Cam, your empathy for any situation always makes me a bit tearful. It's very rare these days
It's good to see you covering these serious topics on your channel Cam
32:22 cam being so pissed he doesn’t bleep himself out (no emoji cos the laughing one seems a bit inappropriate for this video)
Cam makin my Sat nite...! cheers matey..
CAM KIRKHAM BABY!
love when cam posts
2 main channel posts in 2 days cmon
The fact that she doesn’t even remember sleeping with the other guy makes me think they never even did and he’s already sold his soul to Connor so he’s lying to make her case weaker.
It's the slutshaming for women that gets me. As soon as a woman comes forward every sexual partner she has ever had gets dragged up. Clothing choices etc. it's a total witch-hunt
Then men complain when it happens to them in prison...the double standards are off the scale
Were slutshaming conor too dont get it twisted, hes foul for the way he treats his family I have 0 respect for him. But i also have 0 respect for mothers that entice men to pick them up for "fun" when they have a partner an kids at home. the double standards is a joke, women should be scrutinised you all get away with murder and this is a perfect example. Sex is easy for women to acquire hence why it is scrutinised more heavily when something like this happens.
i feel sympathy for dee she's clearly projecting but I don't think she'll leave him although she should
Shes involved and sick too
@TerryMcLean-tg1jq I think she's just in denial about what kind of man her husband really is
@beerguy177 she cant be that dumb ,I have a lot of the pred videos on my tiny channel
first time ever catching a Cam Kirkham video within 10 minutes of upload and i'm stoked!
Cmon then!
Controversial opinion: having sent him photos of herself, going up to his hotel room at 6am inebriated and knowing he was ordering more drinks and condoms, what did she go up to that room for? What he did was despicable, but all things considered why would you even put yourself in that situation in the first place? People nowadays are lacking common sense and then surprised when bad, very predictable things happen 🤷♀️
Because she was willing to begin with doesn’t mean she can’t be sexually assaulted. It’s that ignorant attitude that makes women fearful of coming forward. You can consent to intercourse with a person once, but then deny them a second time. And if they still carry on with the act, it’s assault. End of story.
The new background is fire actually
