"Once again, our justice system has failed survivors." Games of Thrones actress Esme Bianco speaks out as news breaks that Marilyn Manson will not face criminal charges in relation to allegations of sexual assault and domestic violence

Marilyn Manson.

After a four year investigation, Marilyn Manson will face no criminal charges in regards to allegations of sexual assault and domestic violence made against him.

Los Angeles District Attorney Nathan Hochman stated today, January 24, that the sexual assault charges against the singer could not be proven beyond a reasonable doubt, while allegations of domestic abuse allegations fall outside the statute of limitation in California.

Allegations of abuse against Warner were made by more than a dozen women.

A statement from the District Attorney's office reads: “We recognize and applaud the courage and resilience of the women who came forward to make reports and share their experiences, and we thank them for their cooperation and patience with the investigation. While we are unable to bring charges in this matter, we recognize that the strong advocacy of the women involved has helped bring greater awareness to the challenges faced by survivors of domestic abuse and sexual assault.”
