Step-by-step explanation:

In sentences one and two, the verbs accuse and convict are followed by the preposition of. In sentence three, the phrasal verb take in means to fool or deceive. In four, the preposition for is used with the Present Perfect tense to introduce a period of time, like over two decades. Finally, in five, the preposition per means every or each.
