Paddy Jackson and Stuart Olding were found not guilty of rape today.
There has been a strong reaction online to the news that Paddy Jackson and Stuart Olding have been found not guilty of rape.
Jackson and Olding were cleared on all counts while Blane McIlory was found not guilty of exposure and Rory Harrison found not guilty of perverting the course of justice and withholding information. Since the news broke – and in spite of the clear verdict and subsequent statements from the mens’ legal teams – many have shown their support for the accuser on social media.
Those supporters include charities who work with victims of sexual crimes and Labour Party Senator Aodhán Ó Ríordáin who said that he, “and thousands of others, believe her.”The damage this trial has done to any woman who has been sexually assaulted or will be sexually assaulted cannot be quantified. What woman would put herself through that by reporting a crime.This is how we treat women on this island. Rape is basically legal.
