Coronation Street star William Roache to face rape charges
2013-05-02
[BBC.CO.UK] Coronation Street star William Roache
Who??
is to be charged with two counts of rape involving a 15-year-old girl in the 1960s, prosecutors said.
In the 1960s? 50 years ago? One suspects it was statutory, but even if not, it'll be tough to produce actual evidence at this point.
Mr Roache, 81, from Wilmslow, Cheshire, is alleged to have committed the rapes in Haslingden, Lancashire, between April and July 1967, police said. Prosecutors said Mr Roache will appear before Preston magistrates on 14 May.
