Jarryd Hayne Avoids Fourth Sexual Assault Trial

Former NRL star Jarryd Hayne will not face a fourth trial over allegations of a 2018 sexual assault after his convictions were quashed on appeal. The NSW Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions decided not to pursue the case, citing public interest and legal considerations. Hayne, who has spent nearly two years in jail over the legal saga, has consistently maintained his innocence. This decision follows multiple trials and appeals, including a recent ruling that found a miscarriage of justice in his third trial.
