Yes and no.

Clearly this guy got screwed royally and, as someone else pointed out, there was absolutely zero physical evidence aside from the bitch's assertions.

But truly horrific crimes do happen and it is oftentimes possible to prove without any shred of doubt whatsoever who the perpetrator was.

I'd be cool with setting the bar for death sentences considerably higher than that required to simply convict, but, let's face it, there are some people out there who really do deserve to be put down.
