Robert Millward Robert Millward led the case for the prosecution at the trial of Frank Foster for the rape of Carla Connor in January and February 2012 . Rather melodramatic in his style , in his opening address he described Frank as cruel , heartless and brutal man who hid behind a mask of respectability . He stated that it was the Crown ' s intention to prove Frank as a liar and a cold , calculating sexual predator and he begged the jury not to be taken in as Carla had initially been . Carla herself was the main prosecution witness and Mr Millward asked her about their early relationship . She answered in positive tones but went on to describe Frank ' s controlling and suffocating nature and the way in which he almost tried to possess her . She also told of the aggressive way in which Frank reacted when she told him that she wasn ' t willing to marry him and then the details of the rape that occurred . The next witness was Maria Connor who had been the victim of another unprovoked attack by Frank in March 2011 when she was trying to close a deal with him on behalf of Underworld . The third witness , and the most damaging to Carla ' s case , was Peter Barlow . He described the two of them as friends due to their alcohol dependency issues and how he saw Carla immediately after the rape . He also went on to describe Frank ' s description the next day of Carla as someone who " likes it rough and that ' s what I gave her " . Unfortunately , any good this testimony achieved was written off when the defence exposed Peter and Carla as being in the throes of an affair . Mr Millward remonstrated with Carla afterwards for not being totally honest with him and asked if she had withheld anything more from him . When going into the court the next day , he told a waiting Peter and Carla not to sit together so as not to create a poor impression on the jury . This was when the case for the defence was presented and , when cross - examining , Mr Millward tried to questioning the discrepancies in Frank ' s story but he remained cool under pressure , even explaining the photographs of the bruises on Carla ' s arm as the result of a " passionate " sex life . He then put on a very convincing show when he " broke down " on the stand . Frank was duly found not guilty and Mr Millward was brutally honest with Carla and Peter in saying that it was their lies that had lost them the case . List of appearances . 2012
