Joseph Eubank Found Not Guilty of Rape

Joseph Eubank, the son of boxing legend Chris Eubank, has been found not guilty of two counts of rape involving a 16-year-old girl on Brighton beach in July 2022. The court heard that the girl was heavily intoxicated during the incident, but Eubank maintained that their interaction was consensual and that he had not been drinking that night. Judge Christine Laing KC urged Eubank to reflect on his behavior, emphasizing that it was not decent. Eubank's family expressed relief at the verdict, with his solicitor noting the toll the accusation took on the family. The case highlighted differing perceptions of the events, particularly regarding the girl's level of intoxication and Eubank's intentions. This verdict allows Eubank to move forward after a challenging period of legal scrutiny.
