They were all acquitted, seems a bit of a shambles
Very strange as well that the two gay guys who appeared to be the key witnesses in terms of being able to clear up who was abusing who did not give evidence or have statements read out in court.
So you’ve got a big fight, caught on camera and nobody convicted of anything. Torn between surprise they all got off and feeling that his profile meant this incident became a bit of a circus. Not sure how many other Saturday night scuffles end up with a 7 day trial.
