<p class="article__content article__content--intro">Ched Evans, a Welsh soccer player, was convicted of rape almost two years ago. The case of what appears to have been drunken consensual sex, but he was convicted and served his time anyway, now the case is been retried.<br />
Evans, formerly with Premiership giants Manchester City FC, but now plying his trade with League One side, Chesterfield denies raping a 19-year-old at a Premier Inn in 2011.<br />
The transcript of his police interview was read aloud to a jury at Cardiff Crown Court today.<br />
In which he said he had previously been in threesomes with his fellow footballer Clayton McDonald – and said that women “throw themselves” at him.<br />
“It’s part and parcel of being a footballer,” the jury heard.<br />
The Chesterfield striker told cops seeing McDonald naked was “no big deal”, after previously getting into a threesome when they both played for Manchester City.<br />
Evans said: “Me and Clay were in a threesome when we lived together in Manchester about four or five years ago.<br />
“It’s not a normal thing but in the situation we’re in things like that happen. The girls like it. They’ve got two footballers there.<br />
“Footballers are rich and girls like that.”</p>

<p>Describing the moment he walked into the Premier Inn to see former team mate McDonald, having sex with the alleged victim. He claims he received a text message earlier, from McDonald after they left a nightclub saying “I’ve got a girl,”. Evans said he then followed his friend to the hotel.<br />
“I text him back to say ‘I’m coming’ or something like that.<br />
“I also wanted to see who the girl was. It was a laugh and I wanted to see if I knew her.<br />
“She was saying ‘f*** me harder, f*** me harder’, and Clay asked ‘can my mate join in’, and she was like ‘yeah.&#8217;”<br />
In the interview, Evans said he continued having sex with the girl which led to McDonald saying “I’m leaving.”<br />
“I told him I was going too. I said I’m not staying by myself. I have a girlfriend, or I would’ve stayed.”<br />
The girl seemed to be “enjoying herself” he added, “We were all drunk and no one was drunker than anyone else.”</p>

<p>In a video played to Cardiff Crown Court the woman – who cannot be named for legal reasons – told police: “I felt tipsy but not out of control.”<br />
She said she had no recollection of leaving the Zu bar in Rhyl but had a “vague recollection of being in a kebab shop”.<br />
“It’s just a blur. I just remember being there and eating a pizza.<br />
“That’s the last thing I remember. I don’t remember surroundings I just remember having a pizza.<br />
“I’m guessing I walked there,” she said.<br />
As to the the circumstance of their meeting, the victim told the court she got a taxi back to the Premier Inn in Rhuddlan with Port Vale footballer Clayton McDonald who met her in the kebab shop, she had sex with him and was later raped by Evans.<br />
Prosecutor Simon Medland QC told the court a hotel receptionist walked past the room where the alleged incident took place and heard people having sex inside.</p>

<p>Mr Medland continued: “He heard a male voice saying from behind the door quite loudly and forcefully ‘Are you gonna suck that c*** or what?’<br />
“There was no female voiced reply to this but he could hear higher-pitched sounds, like squealing.<br />
“Having not got an answer to that question the same male voice asked ‘No?’ in an enquiring tone.”<br />
In her taped statement to police, a day later. the alleged victim told police she could not remember any thing preceding the rape &#8211; the journey or the night, and woke up alone in bed.<br />
She said: “My clothes were scattered around on the floor.<br />
“I just didn’t know how I got there, if I had gone there with anyone. I just felt dead confused. I didn’t know where I was. I felt dazed.”<br />
Prosecutor Simon Medland, told the court: “She was that intoxicated, for whatever reason, that she didn’t really know what on earth was happening.”<br />
According to Medland, Evans&#8217; friend, Port Vale player Clayton McDonald, had earlier left from the front door of the hotel.<br />
But “Having finished in that room, Ched Evans, then left surreptitiously by the fire exit door, not going back through the reception of the hotel. He then went away.”<br />
At an earlier trail for the same case, Evans had earlier been convicted of rape while McDonald had been exonorated.<br />
His conviction was later overturned and a retrial ordered.</p>

<div class="article__credit">The alleged rape happened in May 2011 when the woman was 19 and Evans was 22.<br />
“She had certainly had several drinks but not really any more than she normally would, perhaps indeed fewer,&#8221; the defense said<br />
“Yet she was much more drunk than she would expect to have been. You will see footage from CCTV of her trying to walk.<br />
“She is seen to be very unsteady on her feet. One explanation which she gives for this is a feeling that she may have been ruffied.<br />
“Let me say now very clearly that there is no evidence at all that this defendant or indeed anyone else did actually spike (her) drink.<br />
“What we do say is that she was very intoxicated that night without really being able to account for how she had come to be in that state.<br />
“Both Clayton McDonald and Ched Evans were young men out on the town. Ched Evan was quite a local celebrity. He was a handsome and fit professional footballer, and as such a wealthy young man.”<br />
