The Jury Fails To Reach A Verdict

The jury in Ryan Giggs’ trial was discharged on Wednesday after failing to reach a verdict on allegations of domestic violence against the former Manchester United star. Giggs, 48, had been on trial for four weeks but, after more than 20 hours of deliberations, the Crown Court jury of seven women and four men failed to reach a verdict. Giggs may face a retrial. He had been charged with assault and coercive behavior against an ex-girlfriend. He had denied all the charges. Prosecutors alleged that Giggs assaulted Kate Greville causing actual bodily harm at his home in Worsley, Greater Manchester, in November 2020. He was also accused of jointly assaulting Greville’s younger sister during the same incident, as well as controlling and coercive behavior towards his ex-girlfriend between August 2017 and November 2020. During the trial, Giggs had said it was justified that he had a reputation for infidelity, but added that he had “never” physically assaulted a woman. On Tuesday, Judge Hilary Manley told jurors she would accept a majority verdict with 10 of the 11 people agreeing. The 12th juror had been sent home due to illness. The jury said when asked Tuesday that it had not reached a unanimous verdict after more than 16 hours of deliberations. In his 23-year career at Manchester United, Giggs won 13 Premier League titles, two Champions Leagues and made 963 appearances. He stepped down as manager of the Wales national team in June, saying he did not want to jeopardize preparations for the World Cup later this year in Qatar. He had been on leave since November.
