Craig McLachlan is found not guilty of all charges of indecent assault.
Australian actor Craig McLachlan has been found not guilty of indecently assaulting and assaulting his former co-stars.
The 55-year-old was charged with seven counts of indecent assault and six of common law assault against four women during a 2014 run of the Rocky Horror Show in Australia.
On Tuesday, Melbourne magistrate Belinda Wallington tossed out all 13 charges, but noted that the four complainants "were brave and honest witnesses".
