Being a coward doesn’t equate to evidence of guilt beyond reasonable doubt 🤷🏻♀️ He’s an Asshole but unfortunately the allegations are weak as there’s very little supporting evidence and the little there is is of questionable provenance or there are alternative explanations for that would cast reasonable doubt.
It does but it happens often if there is no reasonable prospect of a provable case unfortunately. A lack of evidence in this case would mean that - given the financial means of the defendant - it would cost a huge amount to try a case. The media covers means they would struggle to empanel an impartial jury (due to the huge amount of press coverage that Giuffre and her lawyers have courted). Then if they got a jury seated the fact that there is little actual evidence other than she said he said and a photo of questionable provenance that his lawyers would arguably get tossed - the only witness relates to him dancing with her in a night club which isn’t an offence - means it would be difficult for the CPS to spend all that money on a loser case. The slimy little toe rag may skate on this but Giuffre didn’t help herself by spouting to the press every 5 minutes.
Andrew hid in his mommy's castle to avoid his warrant. Guilty, by evidence of cowardice.

Reasonable doubt is what a jury decides. Dropping the case denies due process of a trial, which there is enough evidence to proceed with.
