Stevie was not indicted. Charges were dropped against him. You can look up but I am copying some info here.

"Last night, [the New Jersey State Police] completed an additional investigation which has satisfied me that the State will no longer be able to sustain its burden of proving the charges against Steven Cassassanto beyond a reasonable doubt.


"Therefore, I will move to dismiss all charges against Cassassanto. In light of the pending dismissal, the State has no objection to Mr. Peruto and his client being excused from Court on October 16."


Thirty-two minutes later, DiJoseph received a response from Atlantic County Superior Court official Armando Gonzalez, who acknowledged that charges would be dropped: "Provided you have the Dismissal Order submitted to us on or before 10-16-08. Thanks."


According to the civil lawsuit, Peruto had sent "letter after letter" to a New Jersey judge, prosecutor and detective telling them "they got the wrong guy" -- Casasanto.


Peruto said that he even suggested that investigators use a voice-recognition program to compare tape recordings in the probe with Casasanto's taped interview when he applied for a casino dealer's license three years ago.


After no response to his letters, Peruto filed the civil lawsuit.


The lawsuit accused the state Attorney General's Office, Detective David Feldstein, of the New Jersey State Police, and DiJoseph of defamation, negligence and intentional infliction of emotional distress and other counts, on behalf of Casasanto.


"I'm not dropping the lawsuit," Peruto said.
