Mandy’s Emotional Response to Being Found Not Guilty of Sexual Abuse Charges

Former Manchester City and France international Benjamin Mendy burst into tears on Friday after a British jury acquitted him of nine counts of sexual assault.

Mendy, 28, put his head between his knees and wiped away tears as he listened to the verdict at the end of a three-week trial at Chester Crown Court in northwest England.

Last January, a court acquitted him of six counts of rape and one of sexual assault after a six-month trial.

But the jury in that trial failed to reach a verdict on the seventh count of rape and another of attempted rape, leading to a retrial.

Mendy, whose contract with Manchester City expired last June, has denied all allegations against him.

Mendy was charged along with 41-year-old Louis Saa Maturi, an alleged “intermediary” who was found not guilty by a jury of three counts of rape of two teenagers.

Prosecutors alleged that Mendy was sexually “violent” and raped or sexually assaulted young women whom Matori brought to parties at his palatial home in south Manchester.

But Mandy denied forcing any woman to have sex and said that any sexual activity he had with women was consensual.

In a statement after the verdict, the French player’s lawyers said he was “delighted” to have been acquitted in both trials.
