The problem with the Dukes case was that the evidence had not been vetted of confirmed before the media spread the guilty angle. The media pushing the guilty idea without any kind of process of validation IS at fault for the bulk of the damage that was done. It was not the start of the problem, but it is what made the situation as bad as it was.

I don't see how it's 'difficult' to see the train of thought. "He's probably guilty based on what I've seen, but I can't trust that what I have seen is everything, or that what I have seen was presented in an honest or unbiased way, so I will not add to the people attacking him, even if they are right to do so." Does this still seem silly to you? Because I think a person has every right to err on the side of caution, and I would consider that to be perfectly reasonable.

I don't think many of the grey areas, reasonable doubts, etc just don't exist in this case.

How can you know that? You can believe that with all conviction, and you can be right, but we have a legal system specifically to explore all of these fully. "I don't believe possible defence could be valid, I don't need any more evidence" is fine for you, but it must not be the case that everyone has believe that.

Also the start I don't think is perfectly acceptable to me. I will not judge you for not needing more, my problem is that people have, have, have to be allowed to think differently for there to be any real justice in any system. If people had been encourage, or at least not actively discourage from from this, the Dukes case would not have done so much damage.
