Cardinal George Pell has conviction overturned
#13
RE: Cardinal George Pell has conviction overturned
He essentially got 'the Scottish verdict'.  Scottish law allows for a verdict of 'not proven', which is basically the jury saying, 'We really think you're guilty, but the prosecutors did a lousy job.'

In practical terms, it's the same as an acquittal.
