Only accusations, not even charges?
Charges can be meaningless too, I well remember a lawyer friend who was defending a thief who had been caught with stolen goods a few hundred yards from the house that he’d broken into.
The police, just to make sure, also charged him with possession of a pistol.
In Court my friend was going to plead for mercy as his client was as guilty as they get, however probably through an oversight the pistol charge was included.
When the pistol was produced and tendered-as evidence the Judge asked my friend if he wished to examine it.
Suddenly deciding to do a “Perry Mason”, he said “No, Your Honour, that pistol’s been in Court so many times I can describe it from here.”
The Judge picked up the exhibit, scowelled, and, slamming the pistol onto the bench, said “Case dismissed” and to the Prosecutor and the detectives, “I’ll see you three in my chambers”.
