What happened to:
Former NRL star Jarryd Hayne has been sentenced to five years and nine months in jail for sexually assaulting a woman on the night of the 2018 grand final.
A jury in March found Hayne guilty of two counts of sexual assault which the victim said left her feeling “dirty, scared and ashamed”.
Hayne must serve a minimum of three years and eight months.
In handing down her sentence, District Court Judge Helen Syme said she found that Hayne was fully aware that the victim was not consenting and went ahead anyway.
