Hasapopoulous, from Stroud, will be sentenced later. But the jury of seven women and five men took seven hours and four minutes to acquit them of both charges. With the exception of Saunders, who claimed in his defence that he honestly believed Shell's employees and shareholders would have consented to his criminal damage, the judge said: 'They don't have any defence in law for the charges they face.' Thanking jurors for their 'care and attention', the judge said: 'This has been an unusual case.' Augsburger, Bramwell, Clifford, Lambert and Saunders, who are all from Stroud, Gloucestershire and Bray, from Holmfirth, West Yorkshire, were jubilant as they left court.
Hasapopoulous will not receive a sentence of 28 years.
