A Leigh man has been cleared of two rapes after a trial by jury
Following a trial, a Wigan borough man has been cleared of three serious sexual offences against him
A Leigh 43-year-old has walked free from court after a jury found him not guilty of serious sex crimes.
Sean McKenna had denied raping a woman in Wigan between May 31 and July 1 2024 and carrying out another rape, plus a sexual assault against a woman on April 17 this year.
And after hearing all the evidence at Bolton Crown Court over several days, the jury deliberated for five hours and then delivered three not guilty verdicts.
Mr McKenna, who had been remanded into custody before the hearing told Wigan Today that the allegations had severely damaged him and that he had been unable to get anywhere to live.
