Because we don’t have a system that believes in the concept of manifest guilt. Innocent until proven guilty, not just a handy saying but a core concept that could keep you out of jail.
I think we NEED a concept of “Manifest Guilt”.
If somebody pulls out a gun and blows away a number of people in fornt of a pack of witnesses, trying him is a waste of time and tax payer money.
Its also a travesty of justice to the bereaved relations of the dead.
Hang him.
