Ched Evans

So the daft lad has been found not guilty to tape after a lengthy period of conviction and retrial. At last justice is seen to be done.
There are several things about this case that I found odd.
1, his fiancées dads money has helped clear his name, how would someone without the financial clout fared.
2, He was castigated before the full judicial system had been completed.
3, He is still a plank for putting himself in that situation.

Correct on all accounts.
 
Wasn't the CPS the accuser? I don't think it was the girl.

But yea, justice at least. There was clearly no evidence from the start.
 
Can he claim for loss of earnings?

is their A cap to what he can get?

wasnt a premiership player but still had a massive effect on career. He seems to have coped well with it. Obviously a nob for doing the dirty but having a drunken one nighter isn't illegal. At least not anymore apparently.
 
It's still a very risky thing to do and we need more education out there about it.

I'm not just taking from the legal side but it's now a bigger factor than most think.

Personally I think they're decreasing (drunken one nighters) With social dating apps now, it seems easier to line someone up so to speak than go to down and "pull" the old fashioned way.

RE the legal side, the original trial was IMO just in its intention, but came to the wrong conclusion.
 
He admitted walking in to her room and joining in without asking or talking to her at all before, during or after. Whilst his mates tried to video it. All whilst having a missus at home.

Legal or or not he's classless.
 
Having followed this case from the beginning with interest, I was a bit dismayed to hear him being slagged off for being a rapist before the trial. Don't know if that was me being old fashioned re " innocent til proven guilty " etc.
I had made my mind up about him as a person, but that was my personal view.
But, what has been said this time in his retrial that was not said at his initial trial?
Above all else, I just have a gut feeling the public are not being told something about this case.

Reading into the reports it would appear that they got some of her exs on the stand. I belive the main prosecution was that she was so drunk she couldn't have given consent. I imagine they exs confrimed that they frequently had drunk sex and therefor her act was more in character than she implied.

The exes stated that virtually identical situations including the same words used during sex happened with them as they did with Evans. I think one of the instances was in the same week as the Evans happening. That was the gist of the new evidence, pretty key evidence as well.

As said, classless bloke but that isn't a crime.

Up until a retrial was ordered he was a convicted rapist, by a system we have to believe in if we now accept the not guilty verdict.
I believe as mentioned, the difference this time was the 2 ex's of the girl, one who claimed she was promiscious and the other said that when she drunk and they'd slept together she couldn't remember it the next day, didn't come forward until after the last trial.
