Convicted child rapist Mark Campbell was on Tuesday afternoon acquitted on one of two additional charges levelled against him for the rape of a three-year-old boy.
The jury, by a count of 11 to 1 found Campbell not guilty of sexually penetrating the child between September 1st and September 30th, 2011.
The panel was, however, hung on the second count, which alleged that he raped the same child two years later, on July 16th, 2013. The jurors were deadlocked, with 8 believing him to be guilty and four believing him to be not guilty.
