this is why I say charges dropped around May 3. He has to have been made aware of this evidence. The defense attorneys wouldn't hold it back from the DA but then spill it to the press the day after the indictment.
The DA didn't care what kind of exculpatory evidence there was. He has a victim testifying to rape and identifying two players. That's enough for a grand jury to indict on, and there's no opportunity for anyone else to present the arguments of no DNA and photographic exoneration. It gets him through the election with an indictment. (although one might have thought he would wait until after the election to go to the grand jury--how hard is it to justify that? "I have evidence that I believe is sufficient to indict, but I would like to make sure that we get certainy on other evidence before taking this serious step.")
