Spandau Ballet singer Ross William Wild found guilty for rape and sexual assault
At Wood Green Crown Court today (January 28), jurors heard that Ross carried out the attacks because he believed he was entitled to “sex on demand”.
Ross had denied the charges, pleading not guilty to the rape of a woman in London in March 2015. He also denied the attempted rape and sexual assault of another woman in Thailand in December 2019. He maintained that the encounters were consensual.
After more than 11 hours of deliberations, the jury returned unanimous guilty verdicts on all charges.
