"Why" is the question to ask to help identify the reason for an event that happens in a historical text.
If you ask "why" an event happened, you will get to better understand the reasoning around it, what prompted the event, and some of the personal/political emotions or decisions that surrounded the event.
It is the burden of the Prosecution to present evidence or proof to prove the case. In the event, that the Prosecution fails to present or inadequate evidence the defense counsel will move to ask the court for case dismissal or motion acquittal.
