A case in Georgia, the prosecutor tried to use "He had PGP on the disk, he
must have been up to no good".  Fairly scary.


He had a penis in the room with her, he must have had evil intentions.

Just because a prosecutor makes such a claim doesn't mean its a legal
argument - and it certainly shouldn't influence the outcome of a
trial. If you say it did, cite the case.
