Brittany Higgins posted a series of cryptic photos in her final Instagram post just days before she was admitted to hospital and her rape trial was abandoned.
Ms Higgins posted a moody photo of the beach, a selfie with Grace Tame and Chanel Contos, and two photos of herself during the October rape trial.
In one of them, she wears a long navy dress and is walking purposefully towards the ACT Supreme Court alongside her lawyer and partner, David Sharaz.

Her Instagram series came just two weeks before a second trial scheduled for February 2023 was abandoned after she underwent a medical assessment.
