The Chesterfield striker was accused of attacking her at a Premier Inn in Rhuddlan, Denbighshire, on 30 May 2011. Mr Evans, 27, was originally found guilty of rape at Caernarfon Crown Court in 2012, but this conviction was quashed in April. He was found not guilty of the same charge, after a retrial at Cardiff Crown Court, on Friday." BBC: Will footballer's rape case change anything? Long and detailed Telegraph article.
