Irish duo acquitted of rape
Print Edition
Ireland rugby players Paddy Jackson and Stuart Olding were yesterday acquitted of raping a woman in Belfast in 2016. Flyhalf Jackson, 26, has been capped for Ireland 25 times and center Olding, 24, has played four times. A jury of eight men and three men returned its unanimous verdict after deliberating for a total of nearly four hours. The two, who were banned from playing pending the trial, had pleaded not guilty to charges over the alleged incident on June 28, 2016. The Irish Rugby Football Union and Ulster Rugby said they would conduct their own investigation into the behavior of the players, who will continue to be banned until a conclusion is reached.
