Willis’s job is to put this monster away for life. She has charged him with more than enough counts to do that, and the shortest distance between two points is a straight line. So you charge him with what is plainly obvious and easy to get a conviction on.

Charging him with a zillion more counts that are harder to prove is only more likely to make a jury think you are just harassing him. Then they will dismiss everything. Willis did this right.
