STAR CLEARED
Former TOWIE star Lewis Bloor cleared of being part of £3million diamond scam
FORMER The Only Way is Essex star Lewis Bloor has been cleared of being part of a £3million diamond scam after his trial collapsed yesterday.
Bloor, 31, and five other men were acquitted after prosecutors did not properly disclose evidence.
He had denied conspiracy to defraud between May 2013 and July 2014.
Victims were allegedly conned into buying coloured diamonds at a 600 per cent mark up.
Bloor, of Buckhurst Hill, Essex, said after the trial at Southwark crown court, London: “The hardest thing about this has been the onslaught of death threats.”
