The Guardian view on Noel Clarke: accountability came from journalism, not a complicit industry | Editorial

Mrs Justice Steyn's judgment is about power and complicity as well as the failure to protect vulnerable people. In her verdict, she agreed with the Guardian that there were strong grounds to believe that [Clarke] is a serial abuser of women. The court heard testimony from 26 witnesses before concluding that Clarke had engaged in harassment, bullying and abuse of power over many years. The judge accepted some of his evidence, but found him to be neither credible or reliable.
