How can it be illegal to see the evidence for a crime?

Should we just trust the government to prosecute who they say committed a crime when you and I cannot verify that the government is in the right in arresting that person?

How do we know a crime was committed if it's illegal to examine the evidence?

Would you like to be accused of a crime where no one can examine the evidence and help prove you innocent? Should your whole family just trust that the government isn't lying while the judge assures people he's seen the evidence and it's true you're a criminal, but no one else can see it?

Governments love this stuff.

It happens all the time, except that the defense is allowed to see the information.
