Aside from that, Due Process is a good thing, ñ'est-ça pas?
Accusation-based trial and conviction in the press has gone far too far (a la #MeToo and previous accusations elsewhere in the Church), especially with respect to ex post facto elimination of statutes of limitation.
These changes promote & enable accusations of decades-old actions, to the point that the perp in question is senile or has died, and therefore unable to present a defense.
Unfortunately for the accusers, a below-average 1st-year law student could make a strong case that all the ratings-driven pretrial publicity severely compromises the defendant's ability to obtain a impartial jury in any venue. There are good reasons for Statutes of Limitations. They support the 6th Amendment right to a speedy trial, and the ability to face one's accuser.
To paraphrase others, "better that one guilty man go free than 10 innocent men go to jail" (Blackstone, Maimonides (at second quote on page referenced)).
I suspect that FReepers as a group would prefer an actual trial-by-jury (rather than trial-by-media), should anything like this happen to them.
That pesky Rule of Law thing, again.
