The problem often is, that the person doing the QUESTIONING, are themselves
acting with motives that are not pure or are warped. I hear what you are
saying, though.
In this country, if someone accuses you of something, and if that something,
if true, means you broke a law, or in the case of civil cases a situation is
created where the authorities would need to act for someone's protection,
than the judge must hear the case. (I know my wording is clumbsy, but the
point is there).
So plenty of innocent people get caught up in horrendous personal situations
that alter their lives for years, or forever, because of sociopaths with a
mission.
The fact is that some guilty people will always 'get away with it' ansd some
will get caught. No reason to catch the innocent people.

citizens, in spite of the impossibility of the task.

You're in good company. Thomas Jefferson said exactly the same thing.

Also, some people apparently would rather that 100 guilty people go free
than one innocent person be QUESTIONED -- keep that up and all the guilty
will go free.
