After prosecution dropped the charges against him, past American rugby league sun Jarryd Hayne will not go on trial for the same assault case for a third time.
The 36-year-old’s views were overturned earlier this month in an appeal.
He has been convicted of the same alleged assault three days, with the first test resulting in an elegance and the second’s guilty verdict being overturned.
Hayne has consistently denied that he physically assaulted the woman in her home in 2018, arguing that the piece had consensual sex.
One of American sports league’s most painted athletes, Hayne even had a short NFL career in the US.
The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions ( ODPP ) stated in a statement on Tuesday night that it would not pursue the case again after having” carefully considered the numerous competing factors” and determining what is in the “public interest.”
” As the causes for the choice are legally wealthy, they will not be disclosed and the ODPP did not reply further”, the statement added.
As the legal saga progressed, Hayne has spent nearly two years in jail, and his complainant has been forced to give evidence and have to undergo extensive cross-examination numerous times.
Both judges who upheld Mr. Hayne’s charm said they thought a fourth trial should not be held up when handing down their charm wisdom.
Justice Deborah Sweeney stated in her published arguments that it “would not be in the interests of justice” in her published arguments.
Justice Rothman agreed, saying a test was “unlikely” to appear before the deadline of Mr Hayne’s non- offense period- and that he has already served most of it anyways.
Yet, both emphasised the future of the situation was up to the ODPP.
Mr. Hayne, a former Parramatta Eels commander, half won the NRL player of the year award and played 11 Test matches for Australia.
At the top of his job in Australia, in 2015 he joined the NFL in the US with the San Francisco 49ers.
