It's the cops who charge people. It's the CPS who take it on from there. The CPS are not involved until there's been charges.
They might have been successful (and they may well have been guilty) but it's not right that people are pinched on the say-so of accusers with no other hard evidence while in other cases (such as those I outlined) where there's some evidence no charges are brought.
In many cases they're taken to Court after saying "We'll let a jury decide" knowing emotion will usually take over. In the case of the Harris trial and re-trial, that didn't work!
So how many individuals and which ones do you think have been found guilty in court based purely on the verbal accounts of 'accusers'.
