    If they wanted to let a rich person walk free they could have simply refused to prosecute

      That would be make the prosecutor look very bad in such high profile case.

      “Technical fumble” allows them to save face.

        Technical fumbles hurt them professionally a lot more. This was a pretty bad fuck up.

          Well then it must have really been worth it then.

          I am not saying this case is one way or the other but y’all acting like it deff not corruption when statistical analysis indicates that wealthy perps get away with murder.

          At some point, people start to notice.

            Sure. But also it’s the states job to prove a guilty verdict. And personally if they’re gonna pull this crap I’m happy the case got dismissed.
