THE PROSECUTION OF PATRICK JACKSON

KRW LAW LLP act on behalf of Patrick Jackson in relation to today’s announcement by the PSNI.
We are very disappointed at the decision of the PPS to prosecute given the particular circumstances and facts known in this case.

 

Our client rejects completely the allegations made against him and we are confident he will be exonerated in due course.

 

Given that the case will be a jury trial it is absolutely critical that nothing is done or said in the media to prejudice due process and to that end we urge restraint on any sensationalist reporting.

 

We will push for as early a hearing as possible as Patrick Jackson wants to resume playing his rugby union for Ulster Rugby and representing his country for the IRFU.
