Justice is not about statistics. It's about the "odds" of an individual being guilty or not. And those odds are 50-50.

If you don't look at it that way, you're denying them a fair trial.

For every accuser that you implicitly trust, there's a a suspect that's not getting his share of justice. He's not "innocent until proved guilty", is he?

And need I remind you that if we are to take an accuser at his or her word, we must equally respect the word of him that accusers another of slander? An accusation is an accusation.
