Summations expected to be held in trial of NYC executive accused of raping woman in Hamptons
Closing arguments are expected to be held Tuesday in the trial of a New York City investment banker accused of raping an Irish tourist on Long Island.
Former Goldman Sachs executive Jason Lee has pleaded not guilty to raping a 20-year-old woman in the bathroom of an East Hampton home he rented in the summer of 2013.
Prosecutors say Lee met the woman at a nightclub in the Hamptons while celebrating his birthday. She and her friends went to Lee's home following a night of drinking.
Lee is accused of sexually assaulting the woman in the bathroom while her friends were in the kitchen.
The victim returned from Ireland to testify. The case is being closely followed by Irish media.
Defense attorney Andrew Lankler argues the sex was consensual.
