I suppose since juries already decided they were guilty, we should've left all those people cleared by new DNA tests in jail
Yup. Until they win a Rule 33 motion for newly discovered evidence based on the applicable Rule 33 law, in which case a judge can release them. You see, the system which decides guilt -- our system which was constitutionally created (September 17 is Constitution Day, the day it was signed!) -- provides for the people to make laws and rules and the people have created such a law for newly discovered evidence.
So, once again, sorry to disappoint, but its our criminal justice system, not you, that decides the truth about guilt or innocence on the planet Earth. (Take heart. There are plenty of other jobs here on Earth available. But discerning the ultimate truth on guilty or innocence on the planet Earth, before Heavenly Judgment, is not an open position in the United States of America.)

Did I ever say I "decide" guilt? No, I deny that any human or group of humans can "decide" guilt. You've taken the fact that we have a system for figuring out who is guilty, and made it a system for deciding who is guilty. The guilty are guilty without needing a court to say so (and no, I'm not denying the presumption of innocence), and so are the innocent. They are what they are regardless of what any other person decides, simply because of what they actually did.
BTW, your Heaven bit is just as stupid as the rest of your comments. It's exactly the reverse of the truth: here on Earth, things are as they are regardless of what some authority decides, and if an authority decides so and so is guilty when he isn't, they're wrong. Period. On the other hand, in Heaven all truth comes directly from the Authority there, since reality changes in the wake of His Word.

God judges the courts of the USA just like any other land. They, like all other organs of government, are servants who must render an account unto God. And if these servants follow silly self made rules that thwart heavenly justice, even if they are anchored in such an august document as the US Constitution, God will still require that account. He will not excuse on the basis of "the Constitution said I had to do it."
