AFL legend's son convicted of rape

Tom Silvani, the 23-year-old son of Carlton AFL legend Stephen Silvani and TV personality Joe Silvani, has been convicted of rape following an incident in January 2024. The conviction involves sexual assault where Silvani entered a woman's bed under false pretences and later attempted to cover up the crime with a doctored Uber receipt. A suppression order that prevented media from naming Silvani has been lifted after months of legal challenges, with the family spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on legal representation to keep his identity secret.
