The trial of Silvagni centred around the events of January 14, 2024 when, after a night of drinking, he went to bed with his girlfriend while another couple, who were their friends, had consensual sex in another room.

The woman in that other room gave evidence that when her boyfriend was gone, Silvagni went into the room and digitally penetrated her without her consent. The woman told him to stop, but the court heard Silvagni pretended to be her boyfriend. 

During the trial, the prosecution described his actions as a rape "through deception".

Prosecutors then alleged he took steps to cover his tracks, which Judge Greg Lyon described as "deliberate conduct" adding to the seriousness of the offending.

The jury delivered guilty verdicts on two rape charges after a day of deliberations.
