The judge found Sam Burgess’ former father-in-law Mitchell Hooke’s version of events could not be proven beyond reasonable doubt.
Ex-NRL star Sam Burgess, who was accused of intimidating his former father-in-law Mitchell Hooke during an altercation, has had his conviction overturned on appeal in the NSW District Court.
