Megan Fletcher Smith, instructed by Sarah Froggatt of Owen Nash & Co, successfully defended a young man at Wolverhampton Crown Court. He was accused of rape, and rape of a child under 13.

Having paid close attention to the evidence as it developed in Court, Megan made a successful submission of no case to answer on one of the counts.

The Defendant exercised his right not to give evidence. The jury returned not guilty verdicts on both of the remaining counts.
