What kind of statement was that for the DA to make? The only evidence was the testimony of a liar. The poor guy deserves a full exoneration. Oh, and the girl is not the victim of sexual abuse, she's a liar and perjurer. She must be named in case she should move elsewhere and does this again.

What I’ve always noticed is that it’s very rare for prosecuting authorities to completely admit they’ve made a mistake in things like this. They hang on until the very end, insisting the conviction is always good and the defendant guilty. They still couch it even when the guy is being released. Unless there’s solid DNA or something saying the convicted is definitely innocent, these guys never like to let it go.
Maybe that’s related to not wanting to be sued or something, or if they feel it’s just doing damage to the system to give up and let a guy go who they screwed, I don’t know. Prosecutors fully admitting error in a conviction is rare.
