82 岁的安德鲁·雪里 (Andrew Sherry) 是前空手道冠军,也是英国空手道联盟的创始人,他在 2024 年 3 月最初被判犯有五项与针对十几岁男孩的性犯罪有关的罪名,其中包括一项来自 1980 年代中期的罪名和四项来自 2011 年或 2012 年左右的罪名,在利物浦皇家法院的重审中被宣告所有指控无罪。
Andrew Sherry, 82, a former karate champion and founder of the Karate Union of Great Britain, was acquitted on all charges in a retrial at Liverpool Crown Court after being initially convicted in March 2024 on five counts related to sexual offenses against teenage boys, including one from the mid-1980s and four from around 2011 or 2012.
他最初的定罪于9月被上诉法院推翻,导致重审,陪审团在重审时裁定他在所有罪名上无罪。
His original convictions were overturned by the Court of Appeal in September, leading to the retrial, where a jury found him not guilty on all counts.
经警方调查后于2022年3月退休的Sherry坚持其无罪,并声称定罪损害了他的声誉。
Sherry, who retired in March 2022 following a police investigation, had maintained his innocence and claimed the convictions devastated his reputation.
此案以完全宣告他无罪告终。
The case concluded with his complete acquittal.
