<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 2960989, member: 112&quot;]Why wasn&#039;t this artist arrested for making multiple counterfeit U.S. cents?</p><p><br /></p><p>There are many people who break the law, we have a member here on the forum who does so on a regular basis. The authorities know it, and they are not prosecuted for doing so. Why not ? Simple answer, because the authorities simply choose not to prosecute them.</p><p><br /></p><p>And now you probably want to know why they do that. There can be any number of reasons, sometimes it&#039;s because they&#039;ll say something like - we have bigger fish to fry. Other times it might not be worth the expense of prosecution, and yes prosecutors have a budget they have to stay within just like everybody else. Other times they may say we won&#039;t prosecute because it will be a difficult case to win. We know he&#039;s guilty, we know we will win eventually, but it&#039;s just not worth the trouble.</p><p><br /></p><p>That&#039;s the way our system works, and not just with crimes like counterfeiting, but with a lot of crimes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
