Constable cleared of raping woman and six-year-old girl by Edinburgh jury
A police officer has been cleared of raping a woman and a six-year-old girl by a jury in Edinburgh after doubts emerged about the dates of the alleged attacks.
Martyn Coulter, 36, a Police Scotland constable currently on suspension, was found not guilty of six of the charges by verdicts and a seventh charge was not proven – a verdict of acquittal, after the jury deliberated for nearly four hours.
