Money. He could afford lawyers that were able to dive into every possible way of explaining away his crimes in a way that fit the jury’s concept of reasonable doubt. Also by being able to avoid needing to address violence charges that were past the statute of limitations. Harder to sell violence as a way of coercing when you can’t prosecute for it.
