PC Daniel Julian, a 46-year-old Sussex Police officer, has been cleared of attempted rape and two other sexual offences. The jury delivered the not guilty verdict on 12 April at Lewes Crown Court.
The allegations against Julian stemmed from an incident reported to have occurred on 17 August 2021 at a hotel in Gravesend, Kent. Julian was attending a police training course at the time. Following the report, he was arrested and suspended from duty pending the outcome of the investigation, which was conducted by the force with charges later authorised by the Crown Prosecution Service.
