(62,325 posts)To actually file charges would mean they have to make public the exculpatory evidence which is pretty much known to those who have followed this case, and that would mean the end of the game they are playing.
They tried lying about interviewing a person who has not even been charged, by claiming they could not do so. That was thoroughly debunked, now they simply refuse to answer to answer the question you just asked.
At this point, their failure to file charges, now in the third year, simply confirms what most people around the globe already knew, this was a trumped up case to silence Wikileaks. It has not worked of course since this tactic was already exposed when Wikileaks posted a CIA memo stating that smearing him with sex allegations was how they would handle him. One month later they put it into action, but without actually filing charges.
