Did he not just deny any criminality?

Indeed. He stated that was he was, “by no means an angel” but always denied any criminality. In the end, the jurors agreed with this. 
 

The two Salmond absolutist don’t realise that they do his legacy no favours by wilfully seeing things in black and white. Any one who was around the Party machine during his hey day knew that Salmond was at best a bully and at worst a creepy b*****ding bully. That doesn’t take away his achievements and contributions to life in Scotland. He was one of my political heroes in my early twenties, he was imo the best political mind of his time in Scotland but the idea that the sun shone out his arse is ignorant in the extreme. It’s a far more nuanced subject.

Being a bully back then was often how people got things done 

Alex Ferguson was a bully,  we going to strip his titles

The woke mob won't even let high flyers bully people and sniff woman's hair any more.
