Question juridique clé
Whether the partial dismissal of the investigation for sexual acts with a child was lawful
Solution extraite
The evidence did not make a conviction more likely than an acquittal; the investigation was rightly discontinued on that count.
Motifs extraits
The suspicion rested mainly on the mother’s and partly the grandmother’s statements. Medical and child-protection reports found no corroboration and described the child’s behaviour as normal. The alleged photos and interactions were not objectively sexual, and further evidence was unlikely to yield new relevant findings.
