Premium Content Subscriber only A Victorian man accused of raping a Mackay woman almost a decade ago has testified to deny the allegations. Mr Forbes said while he could not recall every detail from the night when it is alleged he raped a woman in her North Mackay home, he believed he had her consent and encouragement. The court heard Mr Forbes, then 20, and his workmate met the Mackay woman and her friend while partying at Envy nightclub in Mackay’s CBD on December 10, 2011. Crown prosecutor Tiffany Laurence told the court the group then shared a maxi taxi back to the woman’s unit after which Mr Forbes allegedly opened her closed bedroom door to rape her while she was in and out of consciousness.
