Not sure why they charged her, knowing they had only circumstantial evidence.

Its what they always do... just this time the defendant had a good legal team. If everyone charged with a crime in this country was afforded the level of defense she was, you'd see more and more of the evidence in criminal cases being discredited and tossed as we saw here.

The vast majority of criminal cases are won not because of great police work or good prosecutors. They are won because the defendant cannot afford a legal team.

“They are won because the defendant cannot afford a legal team.”

Who is paying the defense lawyers? I have not followed it too closely, but she doesn’t have money, does she?
