Can you think of an answer to your question would justify the removal of due process or need for proof beyond a reasonable doubt?
The legal system errs on the side of letting some guilty people go free in order to try to protect against innocent people being unfairly punished.
That’s why the standard for criminal conviction is that the accused is innocent if you have any reasonable doubt.

Who the fuck said we should remove due process? You understand that when a sexual assault is reported that over 90% are not investigated. “Believe women” is an instruction for the police to begin due process for victims, it’s not like jury instructions. Due process is denied to the victims because police don’t believe women.
Swear to fucking Christ, you’re like those people who act like the BLM movement is saying other lives don’t matter.
