London police say there’s no evidence that a BBC news anchor who allegedly paid a teenager for sexually explicit photos committed a crime. The Metropolitan police issued the statement Wednesday as the wife of Huw Edwards identified him as the presenter. Edwards wife, Vicky Flind, says in a statement that her husband is hospitalized while suffering from serious mental health issues. The U.K.’s publicly funded national broadcaster had not named Edwards, but said it had suspended a male star over allegations he gave a youth $45,000 starting in 2020 when the young person was 17. The BBC says it will continue its investigation into the matter.
