I don't know how they could possibly make anything stick.

There may be some evidence of which I am not currently aware, but based on what I've seen, they have nothing with which to charge this guy.

I mean, "bought for?" Who's to say they didn't borrow them or steal them? You can't lock the guy up on what we think happened. There has to be some proof.
