Crown Prosecution Service Says No Criminal Charges for Andrew Tate as Civil Lawsuit Proceeds

Authorities said the legal test to bring criminal charges had not been met and that ‘no further action should be taken.’

The British Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) has decided not to charge social media influencer Andrew Tate over abuse allegations made by four women.

Tate, 38, is currently facing civil court proceedings over accusations of sexual violence made by four women.

Tate’s barristers told an earlier court hearing that there was “total denial of wrongdoing.”

On Sept. 29, the CPS stated that the legal test for bringing criminal charges had not been met.

“We undertook a further review of a case file in relation to allegations of assault and rape between 2013 and 2015,” a CPS spokesman said.

“Following careful consideration of the evidence provided by Hertfordshire Constabulary, we concluded that our legal test for prosecution was not met, and that no further action should be taken.

“We have informed all parties of our decision and offered to meet with the complainants to explain our reasoning in more detail.”

Tate wrote on X on Monday that he believes he is “one of the most mistreated men in history, beside president Trump himself.”

Tate’s UK solicitor Andrew Ford welcomed the decision.

“Despite much external pressure, the evidence speaks for itself in this case, and the Crown Prosecution Service have rightly confirmed the evidence is inadequate to provide any realistic prospect of conviction,” Ford said.

“The reason the CPS made this decision will become obvious when the evidence is played out during the civil proceedings. We are glad that this is yet another example of a potential criminal case against Andrew Tate falling by the wayside.”

Lawyer Matt Jury, of McCue Jury and Partners, the firm representing the women, wrote on X on Sept. 30 that Tate has “used this as an opportunity to state that all UK criminal charges against him have been dropped. They have not.”

He said the “Tates [Andrew and Tristan] remain scheduled for extradition to the UK to face 21 charges, including rape and trafficking, involving three other British women.”

The women brought a civil case against Tate at the High Court after the CPS decided not to prosecute in 2019.

Three of the accusers were the subject of an investigation by Hertfordshire Constabulary in 2019. That investigation was closed the same year, according to the BBC.
