If we define the scope to people accused and not found guilty, then there are a lot of such cases. During #metoo there were three major cases in Swedish news, two which where the accused were not found guilty and one where the accused was found guilty.

For the two where the accused was not found guilty, they both lost all employment and had to flee the country for months with their family, received death threats, and so on. The justice ombudsman found basically all the major news papers guilty of unethical reporting regard those two individuals, and there is ongoing cases regarding slander and illegal termination of employment.
