One man wished him a happy birthday, while another shouted"we love you, Kevin", as he got into a taxi to leave. "But I would like to say that I am enormously grateful to the jury for having taken the time to examine all of the evidence and all of the facts carefully before they reached their decision and I am humbled by the outcome today.
"And in those circumstances, Kevin Spacey walks free like a newborn lamb with no stain on his character whatsoever." In relation to the first accuser, a driver, Kevin Spacey was found not guilty of three counts of sexual assault and not guilty of one count of intentionally causing a person to engage in sexual activity without consent.
As we reported earlier, the Hollywood star broke down in the dock as the final verdicts were delivered. The Oscar-winning star had remained composed throughout the four-week trial, but fought back tears as he heard he had been cleared today, his 64th birthday.Spacey has left Southwark Crown Court via a side exit, avoiding the media waiting for him outside.
The timings of the UK claims mostly coincided with the actor's time working at the theatre. He was involved from 2001, and began his tenure as artistic director from 2003 to 2015. Signing him had been quite the coup, a chance to turn the venue's fortunes around. Things didn't start well, but improved as Spacey performed more himself. By the time he left, the Old Vic"was financially secure and had rebuilt its artistic reputation". For a period, he had re-established the venue as one of London's leading theatres.By Gemma Peplow, arts and entertainment reporter, in court"The verdict is a major victory for Spacey in clearing his name," said US celebrity lawyer Christopher Melcher.
