Twenty-five-year-old policeman Waylon Jordan yesterday afternoon walked out of the Sexual Offences Court of the High Court in Georgetown a free man, after a jury acquitted him of the charge of raping a 17-year-old girl back in 2019.
Following hours of deliberations, the 12-member panel returned with its majority verdict of 11-1 finding Jordan not guilty of sexually penetrating the young lady without her consent on April 26th, 2019.
Justice Jo-Ann Barlow who presided over the trial implored a visibly relieved Jordan to introspect and endeavour to never again find himself before the courts.
