It does seem a bit unusual that the Defendant’s cousins are members of the website and happen to be the “same person”.…

    To have a successful prosecution of an offender, the prosecutor must carefully examine the offenses and clearly document the investigations with the highest levels of professionalism. Although different crimes have different penalties, it is the work of the prosecutor to ensure that they analyze the crime and identify relevant facts and charges of the given offense.
