Alex Hepburn was an Australian boy who moved to England at the age of 17 to pursue a career in cricket. He landed himself a contract with Worcestershire County Cricket Club and planned to have a bright future. However, his world fell upside down when rape charges were pressed against him. In November 2017, he was charged with two counts of rape.

However, by the time the trial took place in 2019, he was cleared off with one of them. He was accused to have committed rape on one girl who was at his flat and was with his then-teammate, Joe Clarke. While all this was going on, there are some chats of the young player which were leaked online. In those chats, it was seen that Hepburn was bragging about the number of women he had slept with.

He also admitted having taken part in a s*x game which led him to have se*ual activities with 20 women. Other than this, a leaked screenshot also revealed that he was part of a WhatsApp group where women were rated by men. Hepburn admitted to all this during the trial. On 30 April 2019, Hepburn was sentenced to five years in prison. He was also placed on the sex offenders register for life.
