Van Houten defends decision not to prosecute sexual assault case

Van Houten has defended his decision not to prosecute, arguing that a police-prepared sworn statement by the woman did not include her allegations that she was drugged against her will, left incapacitated and unable to consent, and forced into sex. The explanation has drawn attention as critics question whether key allegations were omitted from the case file.
Why now: Questions are being raised about the handling of the woman's allegations and whether the prosecution decision was justified.
