Clarification - Charges dropped against arts figure

On 4 November 2022, 9News Brisbane broadcast a report about a 35-year old male and his 41-year-old partner who worked at a Brisbane theatre company and had been charged by police.

The report was based on a public statement from police that incorrectly suggested the man had been charged with sexual offending against children. 9News was not aware of the errors in the police's statement.

9News wishes to clarify that the sexual offence charges facing the 35-year-old male related to a complaint made by a person in their 30s, and that all of those charges have since been dropped.
