Why would charges that are dropped be brought back without sufficientt evidence?

Question

I know they'd be brought back up if they find evidence to support the crime but if they don't have evidence, one charge has been dropped and one amended and then a few months later the charge that was dropped was brought back up, what does that mean...and the person is in jail awaiting trial?!?!

Answer 1

From a lawyer.  The prosecutor or police can do this legally.  If they proceed with an information or indictment without sufficient evidence the judge can dismiss it at the preliminary hearing or at trial.  A lot of people waste away in jail with the government playing this game.  It's a major problem in our system.  Many people plead guilty when they are innocent because of this problem, just so they can get out of jail on probation.  Then, they make a technical mistake and probation is revoked.  It stinks.

Answer 2

Prosecutors are ARROGANT AZZHOLES! as are the RICHARDHEAD Detectives who think THEIR Chit don't stink!

They get focused on ONE Suspect and ONLY one and grind up any and all CIRCUMSTANTIAL BS "evidence" to play he woulda- coulda-might have if.....

They are just LAZY and Arrogant AZZholes!
