BREAKING: Kevin Spacey was found not guilty Wednesday on all nine charges in his U.K. sexual assault trial.
After weeks of global headlines, star witnesses, and harrowing testimony from his accusers,A jury of nine men and three women, who began deliberating Monday afternoon in London, acquitted Spacey of charges including indecent assault, sexual assault, and “causing a person to engage in penetrative sexual activity,” which would have carried a maximum sentence of life imprisonment.
The trial against the 63-year-old actor got underway on June 28 at Southwark Crown Court in London. Over the ensuing weeks, the jury heard from four men who each accused Spacey of sexual or indecent assault between 2001 and 2013, while the actor was living in London. Three of the four accusers said Spacey aggressively groped them; the fourth said Spacey sexually assaulted him and then performed oral sex on him while he was passed out in Spacey’s flat.
