Due process is there as a safeguard to protect everyone from bogus allegations which destroy one's reputation. Remember Corey Lewandowski? He was accused of assault by Michelle Fields. Thanks to the cameras and video, he was able to exonerate himself. Without it, he could have been locked up in jail and probably, fined huge sums to boot! Yet, he did nothing to her! She was just one crazed lunatic who loved to accuse men of all sorts of things depending on what fancies her! Majority of women political hacks took her side and lambasted Corey Lewandowski on cable tv non-stop! A judge finally, acquitted him saying: incidental contact in a crowded room is not assault! Can you imagine what would have happened if she won and it set a very bad precedent encouraging other women to sue for the flimsiest reasons because it suits them?
