I was surprised too. All it takes is an accuser? That's scary.

In Nifongland, apparently all you need is an accuser but everywhere else you are supposed to have an accuser with a credible accusation. If the allegation isn't credible you don't even have probable cause. I don't think Crystal and her 101 stories could survive a probable cause hearing.

That's not true at all. In fact, it's a legal absurdity. An accusation alone is not enough to take a matter to trial. Think about it and you will see how ridiculous a proposition that is. Anybody who had a vendetta against somebody could make an accusation and cause the person untold and everlasting grief if it had to go to trial. It is the duty of the police and the prosecutor to ferret out such false accusations.
