They only get “egg on their faces” if anyone hears about it. The story gets the full rat spin here in Michigan.
My post was about Matt saying they were not indicted. Charged is when you are arrested, indicted is when the case goes to a grand jury where they either are with the charge and it goes to trial, or it doesn't and the charges are dropped. Convicted is when they are found guilty of the charges.
They were tried 2 at a time in the same trial. 2 were acquitted in one trial, an the other trial, the trial ended in a hung jury. 🙂
