akuperma: You wrote “It proves only that a prosecutor is out to get you, not that you are guilty.” As someone who works for a prosecutorial agency I find this statement “offensive”. While it is possible that an elected District Attorney may want to bring certain type of prosecutions, line Prosecutors are not out to get anybody. White collar crime investigations are generally investigated for 1 or 2 years before they are even presented to a grand jury. Many times the potential defendants are given an opportunity to meet with the prosecutors to work on a pre-indictment resolution. We do not know if this was offered in this case. While I do believe that a Grand Jury “can indict a tuna sandwich”, more often than not there is still evidence that something is wrong.
