If your answer is: No human is infallible.
Then you will understand how important it is to prove accusations against someone, why the law has to strive to prove beyond a simple shadow of doubt that a person did commit a crime.
It is terrible to allow a guilty man to get away with a crime BUT labeling an innocent man guilty is 1000 times worse.
Please know I respect your opinion and I am not defending or condemning any human, I am simply stating what I believe is morally correct as per law and logic, using the facts that have been presented. Also I may not know all facts but I do know human nature and it always surprises me how much people are capable of deceit and that goes for both sides of an argument.
p.s. Even if innocent no man walks away from an accusation such as this unscathed, forever more there is a shadow over him. Sometimes just an accusation, unsubstantiated and untrue is enough to destroy their entire life. I find this very unjust, so I am an advocate of facts and prove.
