"Some of the CCTV evidence didn't add up. And that was what the conviction was based on.So it could be an unsafe conviction. Can't comment on the guilt as that is now for the Judge to decide. " The appeal has been granted on the basis of new information that wasn't available at the original trial. | |||

"Will be interesting to see what the new evidence is. Whatever the outcome, I can only think that victims of rape will be less likely to go to trial as a result of this case as well as the ridiculously low conviction rate overall. "I don't see why to be honest, if there is new evidence that shows he didn't do what they said then that has nothing to do with people who have been real victims of rape. The only people who would be wary are the people who are lying to get a conviction. ( don't know what evidence so don't have a view on that bit ) | |||

Rape victims usually are given anonymity, but people outed her on social media too, she had to take a new identity and move away etc. It must have been very traumatic for her. I don't take one view either way on what happened, I wasn't there so I don't know. But if a rape victim saw what happened to that girl at the hands of social media I can imagine they might be scared to come forward. | |||

"I was not at the trial and did not hear the evidence. I assume that applies to all posting here. From what I have read (and that is a big caveat), the result of the trial does seem very odd. Since the prosecution's case seems to have been that she was too d*unk to consent (and admitted to not remembering much), it is strange that the co-accused was found not guilty. The appeal has been allowed on the basis of fresh evidence but there is no indication of what that evidence is." The trial details are readily available if you want to read them, setting out the difference between the accused and why the jury could reach different verdicts. | |||

I cant remember what he said but he made comments to the jury that showed he had no idea of how young people consent and have sex. daft old dinosaur.

"This appeal has been long overdue and the reality now is that it is likely that he will be found not guilty. It is interesting that the CCRC have stressed that the new evidence was the deciding factor, but I wonder if that will actually turn out to be the case. Society vehemently dislikes rapists and for good reason. But society also needs to judge people on the law and not their interpretation of other peoples morals. If the conviction is quashed... Then what? Compensation for Ched Evans running into the £millions? Humiliation and unwanted publicity for the rape victim who never was?... Or will we see her "story" in the press? And what of the money spent by the public of hiding her? Hopefully we will at least see heads roll in the North Wales Police and CPS." It will all depend on the strength of the new evidence whatever that is. The previous conviction had already been through a judicial review and upheld. A case like this is always likely to raise strong views. | |||

I have read the previous Court of Appeal judgement in which he was denied leave to appeal. The Court decided (amongst other issues) that it was not illogical for him to be found guilty and the co-accused not guilty (despite the victim not remembering the incidents). Logically, that is correct. The jury believed that she consented to one and not the other. We will never know whether the jury believed she was too d*unk to consent to one and not the other or whether she was not too d*unk to consent but consented to one and not the other. | |||

"Whatever the truth of the situation, the result of this appeal could be interesting. Hypothetically, the conviction is quashed - Given that he's served his sentence, CPS are unlikely to see any benefit in in vesting in another prosecution. However, Evans is likely to sue if he's then "innocent "...so do CPS have to go for a retrial as an insurance? " Don't think the CPS will do anything other than state when asked that he was tried and convicted on the evidence available at the time.. which if his conviction is overturned would make one think they would only look less than efficient if they tried to press the DPP to run it again.. does make one wonder where this new evidence was at the time the investigation was carried out.. | |||

"Ok, fuggit, im going to say it. Legal responsibility when pissed. She has sex(so the story goes) but is deemed too pissed to be able to give consent. so has no responsibility. He has sex, so the story goes, and was pissed - but he is deemed responsible (for deciding whether she is too pissed or not, to give consent) and got banged up. Is that right? " Two pissed people having sex I'm sure happens all the time. But having read the judicial review this was very different, predatory and pre-mediated. We may all have differing views on it, but I can see how a jury found him guilty of rape. | |||

"remember there was two footballers involved this case one got away with it and also the female may well have been a gold digger " if one 'got away with it' then that infers the other one was bang to rights so unlikely the victim was a 'gold digger'.. maybe she was asking for it, you know like how she was dressed..? | |||

Don't quite get the analogy, but it is an area of law that probably needs looking at clarifying and made clear to all (the definition of rape that is, not drink driving which is pretty clear cut). | |||

I don't think that was the point, really. We will never know whether the jury accepted the "too d*unk to give consent" argument. I would guess not as if she had been too d*unk to consent to sex with Ched she would have been too d*unk to consent with McDonald. Oh, well ... Juries are unpredictable things. Sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse. | |||
