Yeah I think that audio alone will put clubs off going near him despite this being dropped. Well you’d like to think so |  | |  |

He's not been found guilty, but not innocent either |  |

According to the BBC article, "a key witness withdrew their involvement". Rather telling, that. I thought it was CPS policy to continue to pursue these things, with or without the cooperation of the victim? |  |

I suspect the key words there are 'key witness'. They will have seen what's happened to witnesses and victims in similar cases. |  |

CPS drop charges against Mason Greenwood on 15:06 - Feb 2 with 5933 views | Crawfordsboot | I note that the police comment is that in the light of new material coming to light and a witness withdrawing there is no realistic prospect of a conviction. We need to be very careful before double guessing the reasons for this. He is a product of his environment and his lifestyle might leave something to be desired but he is innocent until proven guilty. |  | |  |

He’ll be back playing within a couple of months. He’ll get loaned to a desperate club with no morals; Cardiff or Birmingham the front runners |  |

If his PR people have any sense, they'd openly a knowledge that he's undergoing behaviour management, and perhaps to the extent of looking into the impact of domestic abuse. I personally think he'll move abroad. I don't think he'll have a chance of a career here though, unlike David Goodwillie, he has not been found guilty in civil court either. |  |

Unless you know something about the Evans case that isnt in the public domain then they are very different imo. He was found to be not guilty, Greenwood's case was not pursued as the witnesses were seemingly unwilling to testify. [Post edited 2 Feb 2023 15:45]

That was very different. Went to retrial and the conviction was overturned due to evidence he provided. |  | |  |

They are back together so I'm sure that's more of a driver than previous treatment of witnesses |  |

No, he was found not guilty. There is a fairly sizeable difference, especially when it comes to criminal matters which have a high bar for guilt. |  |

Worth pointing out, that it IS entirely accurate to say that Ched Evans is a disgusting predatory scumbag with irredeemably vile mates, however. |  |

And that those traits haven't stopped football clubs from employing him...which was what my response was more about. |  |

Well there was only 1 witness as far as I'm aware so that can only lead me to 2 conclusions |  |

At the risk of raking over much dead and buried ground likely to give Hambo the bumtwitches, he was found guilty then freed on a technicality, after a coordinated hate campaign and lots of money from his father in law was moved around. It'd be unwise to suggest he merely cheated given the circumstances before, during and after.

As far as i understand the events, it was decided that she was found to have been in a fit state to consent and the additional evidence highlighted this. I also believe the accuser / victim had previously made an accusation about a professional rugby player which was thrown out straight away. Ultimately, not many people know what happened that night truthfully but i do find it difficult that someone can be vilified for the rest of their life for something they were found not guilty of. That is not a good precedent to set. Like a lot of people I've seen the Greenwood stuff which is horrific and in my opinion he is extremely fortunate that he has no case to answer. |  | |  |
