A 17-year-old boy has been found guilty of raping a woman during a home invasion in Far North Queensland in February last year.
A judge-alone trial in Cairns last month heard the boy detained the woman's partner in a bedroom with a knife, while two other teenage boys raped her in different parts of the Manunda home.
The boy pleaded not guilty to five counts of rape, arguing he did not know his co-offenders intended to sexually assault the woman.
Prosecutors argued the accused was liable for rape because he prevented the partner from intervening.
Judge Joshua Treviño KC has today delivered his verdict, finding the boy guilty of a single count of rape, and not guilty of the other four counts.
