I have to say it was one word against another, no other complainants came forward (and Kev has worked with children, young people and in the community for decades) so why did the CPS pursue it?

That's the thing for me. Usually in cases like this they charge and others come forward. Not a peep from anyone else in this case.

Horrible to have your life dragged through the mud on what appears to be very flimsy evidence.

Boom.

Did they have a choice, given the severity of the allegation? Not sure what the criteria is when deciding.
Anyway I wish Kev all the very best.

Its South Wales Police buddy, say no more. Most incompetent bunch of cvnts. Poor Kev, life literally destroyed. Hope he realises he's a legend down here....always will be.

I don’t know what criteria they use other than the well known “public interest” one. Surely they were extremely unlikely to get a conviction on the basis of one word against another though? This is why rape is a very difficult crime to prosecute successfully, there are rarely any witnesses and in the absence of forensic evidence it’s who the jury believes. If there are a dozen complainants all telling similar stories then that becomes compelling.
Interesting that it was probably a majority verdict though and that might give the CPS some justification.

The judge indicated that he was prepared to accept a 10-11 majority verdict.

Mmmm, on reading the transcripts they dont seem to have covered themselves in glory tbf.
I sincerely hope Kev can move on, as difficult as it will be, but as you say, he has a lot of support, and rightly so.

It’s frightening what could happen to any of us mind.
