No one knows definitively if this was fabricated.
Well, at least one person does.
But I agree, it is important to keep in mind that the proper venue for
determining guilt or innocence in the case of fraud is the court system.
Until fairly recently, the idea of presumed innocence and the right to
cross-examine accusers and witnesses has been considered fundamental to
civil society.
The case certainly sounds compelling, but this is all the more reason to
adhere to these ideals.
