Footballer’s fight for career after wrongful conviction

Available for over a year

Ex-Barnsley striker Shaun Tuton was dropped by Whitby Town after he was found guilty of outraging public decency, with details of the case reported in the national press. His conviction was later overturned on appeal, but he says the damage had already been done, having lost his club and profession almost overnight. He's been talking to Simon Thake about clearing his name and fighting to rebuild his career. Warning: contains reference to suicide If you or someone you know are having feelings of despair or emotionally distressed, a list of organisations that can help is available at www.bbc.co.uk/actionline
