but the fact they allowed him to KEEP it is prima facia evidence it was 'allowed'.

By your reasoning the fact that he has not been tried over three years later means his murder of multiple people is allowed also. Just because action has not been taken does not mean something is allowed.

That's downright ridiculous.

In law, yes, it does. Silence implies consent whether it's an individual OR an entity.

By not keeping him shaved, the government implied its consent to the beard, and the burden became theirs to justify its removal.

I'm certainly not trying to defend this piece of excrement, but legal procedures are legal procedures. You don't get to pick and choose which ones you 'want' to observe.

That's downright ridiculous since the charges are still there.
