THE family of a young man accused of raping and choking a stranger during a night out in Newcastle in 2022 have broken down in tears in court after he was acquitted of all charges.
After listening to a week of evidence and closing arguments, a jury took only about an hour on Monday morning to find Jack Milner, 21, not guilty of aggravated sexual assault and inflicting actual bodily harm and the alternative charge of sexual intercourse without consent.
