    A jury could just find him not guilty on that one count but guilty on all others. Not seeing how it weakens any other part of the case.

      I think it’s along the lines of ‘if the prosecution presented an accusation that is obviously false, how well standing is the rest of the case’

      If I were in the jury, a case that is part bullshit would definitely compel me to think again about how well the investigation was done
