BG, a former Police Inspector, faced trial in relation to several counts of possessing indecent images of children.

Having considered all of the evidence, the jury returned verdicts of not guilty.

BG was represented by Will Russell and Kevin Williams of our Private Client Department, and by Lee Sergent of Garden Court Chambers at trial.
