Ex-Spandau Ballet Singer Ross Wild Convicted of Rape and Attempted Rape by London Jury

Sentencing will be scheduled separately, with the court set to factor in his prior 2024 sex-crime convictions.

Overview

  • Jurors at Wood Green Crown Court deliberated for more than eleven hours before returning guilty verdicts on all counts.
  • The case covered the rape of a woman in London in March 2015 and the attempted rape and sexual coercion of another woman in Thailand in December 2019.
  • Prosecutors said both women met Ross Davidson through Tinder, while he maintained the encounters were consensual.
  • Investigators recovered a covert video from his phone showing the Thailand victim asleep and unresponsive, which he admitted filming for sexual gratification.
  • A Metropolitan Police investigator called him a serial and opportunistic offender, and authorities said the sentencing date has not yet been set.
