I live in the US as well and you're arguing for a medieval form of justice. You think we should go back to conviction on a "hunch" and feelings. Have we fallen so far that I have to argue for the merits of a justice system based on evidence in a technical forum? Education and critical thought should be inextricably linked.

No, you didn't understand what I wrote. If you are sure you're not operating on a hunch, which is certainly possible, then just shrugging your shoulders when the court does nothing is insane. If you have proof that a court refuses to listen to then it is your moral imperative to act on it if you can do so.
