And if there is a declaration of fraud, the accuser must be able to prove intent to defraud. That's the high hurdle for accusations of fraud - proving intent (and that it wasn't a mistake, misunderstanding, etc.). Intent suggests there was some monetary benefit for the person (Higgins) committing the alleged fraud. How could/did Higgins possibly benefit?
Very weak, IMO.
