Manchester Police drop all charges from Mason Greenwood
The Manchester United forward Greenwood cleared of all charges
The Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood was accused of attempted rape and more allegations. However, now he has been cleared of all charges for which Greenwood says he is ‘relieved’.
Going into detail, Greenwood was charged with allegations of attempted rape, coercion behavior, and assault against women. However, following an intensive investigation by the Greater Manchester Police, the Englishman has been freed of all accusations.
GMP confirms the news
On Thursday, the GMP released a statement saying: “Given the significant media coverage of this case, it is only fair that we share the news that the 21-year-old man, who had been arrested and charged in connection with an investigation opened in January 2022, no longer faces criminal proceedings in relation to this.
“The investigation team has remained in regular contact with the legal team, providing any updates of note, and so understand the rationale for the discontinuation of proceedings at this stage, and that this decision has not been taken lightly.
“Despite the media and public’s interest in this case, we have decided not to comment on it in any further detail.
“I would, however, like to use this opportunity to reiterate GMP’s commitment to investigating allegations of violence against women and girls and supporting those affected, regardless of their circumstances, throughout what can be a hard and upsetting time for them. An ever-increasing number of officers are receiving specialist training and the force is more consistently utilizing tools, available via the criminal justice system, to keep people safe and care for victims.”
How did Greenwood feel?
Greenwood has expressed his relief as he said: “I am relieved that this matter is now over and I would like to thank my family, loved ones, and friends for their support. There will be no further comment at this time.”
The club, however, is yet to make its stand clear. It is assumed that the club will hold its own investigation.
