He became a witness for the defence. The police subsequently investigated their handling of the case and found that they had done nothing wrong.

Ironically, the journalist in the documentary, Tara Brown (https://twitter.com/tarabrown60), who sympathetically interviews Ben Smith, his wife and others also sympathetically interviewed Virginia Giuffre in the 60 Minutes documentary “Exposing Jeffrey Epstein's international sex trafficking ring”.

‘Empowering’: Wife helps ex-cop husband prove innocence after sex crime accusation

Mr Smith faced two trials, the first ending in a hung jury. At the second, he was unanimously found not guilty. But the couple are now seeking accountability from NSW Police over the ordeal, which Mr Smith says has ruined his reputation, career and financial future.
