I could go to the police tomorrow and allege that you communicated suggestively with a 12 year old girl. But as I have no actual evidence of that, the police would conclude within a very few days - as they have done here - that there is no case to answer. Your allegation has to have credible evidence attached to it. The parents’ claims *might* have had such credibility, had they not been in the pay of a tabloid newspaper and had the alleged victim not flatly contradicted them within 24 hours.
No evidence, no justification for intrusive searches. A very valuable restriction on the State’s power to interfere in the lives of private individuals.
