bring charges

In November 2024, the Metropolitan Police sent the Crown Prosecution Service a file of evidence, but prosecutors have not yet decided whether to bring charges.

The Los Angeles County district attorney’s office declined to bring charges against Jackson, whose representative said at the time that the performer was “relieved that the investigation revealed that this was nothing more than a misunderstanding.”

“While we are unable to bring charges in this matter, we recognize that the strong advocacy of the women involved has helped bring greater awareness to the challenges faced by survivors of domestic abuse and sexual assault.”

The CPS will now review the file of evidence and consider whether to bring charges.

In February last year, the NCA did bring charges against the former governor of a Crimean city, who was charged with seven counts of circumventing sanctions and two of money laundering.
