If the jury believe there is reasonable doubt then they should find a defendant not guilty. If there is reasonable doubt it doesn't mean any accusers have committed perjury.   1 hour ago, cressida said: It has cost thousands of £s already, the justice system needs overhauling - Giggs and his ex-girlfriend thave to wait until July for his re-trial it must be an awful strain I agree with your sentiment. It's wrong in my opinion that Giggs or Mendy should face retrials after juries failed to find them guilty in their original trials. It's a waste of taxpayers money by allowing the prosecution to have another bite of the cherry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
