Sooooo, we can schittcan the whole " Innocent until proven guilty " concept too...?


Maybe actual criminal charges wouldn't be necessary, but how about review by an impartial outside agency or commission?


That is what a grand jury is. They are ordinary citizens off of the street. Size varies by state, but most serve a few months reviewing cases and then go back to their ordinary lives.
