Jack Tweed not guilty of rape

Jack Tweed, the widower of reality television contestant Jade Goody, has been found not guilty of rape. The 22-year-old and his friend Anthony Davis, 26, were cleared by a jury at Snaresbrook crown court in east London. Tweed, a club promoter, and Davis, a property developer, had pleaded not guilty, contending that they had consensual sex with the 19-year-old student in September last year. Tweed married Goody in February 2009, a month before she died of cancer.
