I don't normally take the 'no smoke without fire' attitude but at the same time I don't always think that a not guilty verdicted should be taken as gospel in every case and never again questioned (that could also work with 'guilty' verdicts in some cases). It took the jury 20 hours to clear him of 12 charges, they were unable to reach a decision on two of them, there was obviously a great deal of doubt. And with Dave Lee Travis it wasn't an isolated incident he was accused of, there were 11 different women and the accusations spanned four decades, they weren't all from half a century ago. It probably says a lot that with the two accusations the jury couldn't reach a verdict on both were relatively recent; one from the 1990s and one from 2008.
