can someone go to jail if the detectives dont have any kind of evidence?

My friend has been wrongfuly accused by an ex boyfriend. he's upset because she doesnt wanna be with him anymore and for a while he wouldnt leave her alone. Then he got creepy and typed a lot of papers just talking about her and he sent them to all her friends and co workers. then he went to the police and said she had threaten to kill someone by having someone else do the dirty job for her. Which was absolutely a lie. Now shes worried because the detectives came to her house althought she wasnt home and said they wanted to speak to her. She later on got the message and explained herself to the detective over the phone and told him her ex boyfriend was obsessed with her and now hes pissed off because he got dumped. she explained everything. But Now he wants to meet up with her in person and she thinks she might get arrested.
 
i hardly think that if there is no proof of these threats then she has nothing to worry about. cases revolve around evidence and if there isnt enough evidence to convict someone then the trial just gets dismissed...if she didnt do anything then dont you think she should have nothing to worry about?
 
she f*cked up by not putting a PFA on him when he wouldn't leave her alone. but if she never touched those papers then her prints won't be on them. and they can tear his computer apart and get chips and drives all that sh*t with all that stuff on it. just be honest with the cop and get that PFA.
 
This fits the standard profile of an abusive boyfriend, and the only person I am worried about the cops treating unfairly is the boyfriend. They always get the sh*tty end of the stick in any type of domestic dispute, although I must admit it is our fault more times than not.
 
ABSOLUTELY NOT. The detectives came as part of protocol. They must check out all allegations. And i am sure they saw right threw the lie. I would contact the detectives and ask them to let you know when they finish there investigation. Because you wish to press charges for slander, filing a false police report, deformation of character and psychological damage. But do all you can to cooperate with the detectives. Fighting with them or arguing could draw out the investigation. In order for someone to go to jail there has to be substantial evidence and must be brought before a judge to at least get the warrant for arrest. The judge will not issue the warrant without credible and physical evidence.
Also most people dont realize that every document can be traced back to the computer that printed the papers. So unless she typed it on her computer, sent it from her email (which is circumstantial) or printed it on her computer. She has nothing to worry about.
