A jury took only 31 minutes to aquit Graham Hulston of the two charges by a unamimous decision at Chichester Crown Court today, Thursday November 12.
It followed a four-day trial in which Hulston, 46, of West Street, Bognor, had been accused of raping a woman in July 2014.

Hulston denied both charges, and his account that the woman consented to sex was accepted by the jury, who delivered a unanimous not guilty verdict.
