All Assault Charges Against Greenwood Dropped

Mason Greenwood’s charges of assault and attempted rape have been dropped.

 
The Manchester United forward had been arrested in January of last year (2022)
 
Greenwood was due for trial in November but today the British authorities have confirmed that all the charges have been dropped after being pending for a year.
 
A spokesperson has said:
 

“In this case, a combination of the withdrawal of key witnesses and new material that came to light meant there was no longer a realistic prospect of conviction.”

 
“In these circumstances, we are under a duty to stop the case.
 
“We have explained our decision to all parties.
 
“We would always encourage any potential victims to come forward and report to police and we will prosecute wherever our legal test is met.”
