A jury has found a former police officer not guilty in a sexual assault case.
Richard Dow was accused of sexually assaulting an 18-year-old woman during a photo shoot at his home in 2000.
Dow ran a side modelling business, along with working as an officer. He has since retired from the force.
The jury heard closing arguments in the case on April 26 and began its deliberations Monday, reaching a verdict later in the day.
Outside court Monday, Dow said the decision was a relief and his lawyers added that Dow is confident the jury came to the right decision.
Dow's legal battles aren't over, however.
He returns to court on Monday to face a judge on other sex-related charges involving more than 20 women.
