UK rapper Yung Filly, whose real name is Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos, has been acquitted of charges including rape following a performance in Australia. A jury found the artist not guilty of three counts of sexual penetration without consent, assault occasioning bodily harm, and strangulation.
The jury was unable to reach a decision on three additional counts of sexual penetration without consent. Barrientos was, however, found guilty of two counts of assault.
The accusations stemmed from an alleged sexual assault of a 20-year-old woman in his hotel room after he performed at a nightclub in Hillarys, a suburb of Perth, in 2024. Barrientos is also known for his involvement with the YouTube collective Beta Squad and has made appearances on television shows.
Details regarding sentencing for the assault convictions were not immediately available.
