Leslie breaks down in tears as sexual assault charges dismissed
The former host of ITV's This Morning programme said he and his family "have been taken to hell and back" by a nightmare of allegations which were dismissed by his defence team as "shot with holes and contradictions".
Standing on the steps of London's Southwark Crown Court minutes after the Crown had dropped two charges accusing him of indecently assaulting a young actress, the 38-year-old said the decision had vindicated his repeated protestations of innocence. "We have always believed that justice would prevail and the truth would out," he said.
