Re: Liability of an Accuser

Result: He paid money to a lawyer, refused a plea bargain offer ($100 and forfeit his Springfield).
Charges dropped at the 11th hour by a DA who had no case.

It's been said before: You can beat the rap, but you will still take the ride. And I don't see an opportunity to recover damages from anyone, at least in the case referenced. If the hospital had initiated the action, it might b different.

IANAL etc
