>An indictment is not a successful prosecution.
It can still ruin a life. The social consequences of being indited can be the worst part of some crimes. Especially for charges that people keep saying 'well better safe than sorry'.
- ckozlowski 11y agoAbsolutely. That's why, as some people asked elsewhere, why there's no defense. Because they haven't been disturbed yet (in most cases). No reason to drag them in and suffer the social stigma because of some overzealous prosecutor's witch hunt.
