[Magdalen] DC rumblings

I think that's a true assessment. If they are squeaky clean then any 
unprejudiced prosecutor would know that a prosecution would be laughed 
out of court so not ho anywhere near it. In other cases a (well-paid) 
lawyer may be able to persuade a few jurors that there is reasonable 
doubt and so get an acquittal even when the balance of probabilities 
would indicate at the very least some skating around the verges of what 
is legal and generally acceptable.
