Our thanks to a supporter for this. He writes:
“Ex-Corrie actor Sean Wilson – I want to ask where is his “justice”? This mirrors my own case, accused, investigated but never charged. As bad as this is, it could have been a lot worse and this is not lost on me every day wrt my own false rape accusation.
The complainant will have been called a “victim” all through this investigation, a sexual offence (which may never have happened) will have been recorded in the home office crime statistics and will appear in official records, the complainant will also be eligible for tax payer funded compensation under the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority. All good if you can get it, but men falsely accused get nothing – no support anywhere from anyone.
And it looks like he has lost future work because of it. I hope he takes some legal action against ITV because it seems there could be a claim here for unfair dismissal – this is a really important point about the presumption of innocence, really he could bring a very important employment law test case here if what he is saying really happened.”
