No case is truly open and shut, this is true. It just baffles me how some of these cases get fought harder than others and it doubly pisses me off that prosecutors will go the distance for other, debatably less severe cases regardless of money or risk of failure, but a creature like Lorne gets a break just because everyone wants their quick plea and then goes home.
I think his stated intentions for the camera and him bringing the camera are just so up-front that him not being charged with the big boy felony has a bigger impact on me. Lorne isn't even the most dangerous predator in Bowling Green (personally think Lurch has that distinction) but he was certainly in a position to get serious punishment and the prosecution just...dropped it because they didn't want to fight it or didn't want to pay for it when they could guarantee a smooth handful of years instead.
