What factors contributed to the decision not to prosecute Marilyn Manson, despite evidence provided by accusers, and what broader context does this decision illuminate?

The decision not to prosecute highlights the challenges in pursuing sexual assault cases, particularly when dealing with evidence from years prior. While the DA acknowledged the accusers' bravery, the statute of limitations prevented prosecution for domestic violence, and insufficient evidence hampered the sexual assault charges, despite evidence such as photos of injuries and text messages provided by accusers. This underscores the difficulties of achieving justice in such complex cases.
