Regina v Watts: CACD 23 Jul 2010

The defendant, with no previous convictions appealed against conviction for sexual assaults on vulnerable women at the care home at which he worked. He said that the evidence was so weak that it should not have been left for the jury. Special procedures under the 1999 Act had been used for the complainants to give evidence.
