Police officer's amazing excuse:

The woman said Walters sent her a Facebook friend request while in the
room, and then sent a private message saying “hello” with a heart
emoji when his shift finished.

However, Walters said the woman seized his phone and called her number
from it, and then added her as a friend on Facebook.

He said any subsequent message to her from his account was sent in
error, due to his “fat fingers” pressing the wrong button as he tried
to delete the prompt.

His Honour Judge Andrew Goymer said, in his summing up to jurors: “Did
he (Walters) sexually assault her by slapping her on the buttocks and
putting his hand in her underwear?

“That is the task that faces you.”

The jury will be sent out on Friday.
