Of course he deserves due process. It's how the American legal justice system works.
However, Donnie is fucked. And I don't mean he dropped the soap in the show kind of fucked. He doesn't have the financial means to fight this. Donny's mother had depended on Donny for support; She is not in a position to help him at all. In fact, they've lost what little they have - with Donny unable to pay his rent or his car payment, they lost the apartment they were renting and his Subaru was repossessed too. His mother had to give away his two large dogs because she couldn't house them or care for them.
Donny deserves due process, but without the financial means to fight it he is actually fucked.
Personally, I believe he's guilty. He's never said anything or done anything to make me think that, but where there is smoke there is fire. This isn't the first time there have been such charges; They don't arrest people and bring them to trial unless they really believe there is something wrong done.
