Why didnt the DA prosecute Greene?
The District Attorneys office has stated that they evaluated the case and chose to not prosecute based on the sufficiency of the evidence presented to them. Criminal cases require proof beyond a reasonable doubt, the highest burden in the justice system. In this case, Mr. Greene denied abusing Mr. Scull. With no independent witness to verify Mr. Scull’s allegations, and a “he said-he said” state of evidence, the District Attorney did not believe that the prosecution of Mr. Greene would have a likelihood of success at trial. However, this decision does not mean Mr. Scull’s allegations of domestic violence were untrue.
