Jeffrey Donaldson is found guilty on all charges of historical sexual offences involving two victims, which are reported as occurring when the complainants were children. Multiple outlets report that a court convicts him on 18 counts in total. The charges include one count of rape, along with offences described as indecent assault and gross indecency. One source specifies the breakdown of the convictions as 13 counts of indecent assault and four counts of gross indecency, alongside the single rape count. Another outlet reports the overall outcome as guilty on all 18 counts of sexual abuse against two victims. The reporting describes the case as centring on offences committed in the past and does not indicate that any other individuals are charged in these accounts. The verdict is presented as a court decision following trial proceedings, with outlets using similar language about the number of counts and the fact that the victims are two women. The coverage is focused on the conviction and the categories of offences established by the court.
