TL;DR Summary

Brazilian soccer star Dani Alves has been found guilty of sexually assaulting a woman in a Barcelona nightclub and sentenced to 4 1/2 years in prison. The court ordered Alves to pay 150,000 euros in compensation to the victim and banned him from approaching her for nine years. Alves denied the allegations and plans to appeal the verdict. This case is the first high-profile sex crime since Spain overhauled its legislation in 2022 to make consent central to defining a sex crime.
