Soldier F not guilty of committing Bloody Sunday murders

Bloody Sunday families and supporters march to the Crown Court in Belfast for the delivery of the verdict in the trial of Soldier F who is accused of 2 murders and 5 attempted murders in January 1972. 

A former paratrooper known as Soldier F has been found not guilty of committing two murders and five attempted murders on Bloody Sunday in Derry in 1972.

Delivering his judgment at Belfast Crown Court, Judge Patrick Lynch said the evidence presented against the veteran fell “well short” of what was required for conviction.
