      Sure but it was NOT used to do the other. That’s why the other doesn’t exist.

        One is used to do the other in a trial. It wasn’t done because it didn’t have a chance to. In the meantime it was enough to get an indictment from a grand jury - admittedly a low bar but still something.

          That’s not really how that works. You find the proof and then go to trial…

            Ok, but the in quote from the other reply he asserts that they did develop it. So what specifically are they missing that any other criminal case would have had before trial?
