I could be mistaken, but isn't this what jury trials were supposed to correct before our little revolution?

definitely, and this is the main reason why i detest the patriot act and this current piece and about all of the legislation passed in the last 5 yrs. everyone saying, "well, it's been in effect for ___ years and nothing bad has happened." yet.
i don't trust people, period. I trust governments even less, so when it is explicitly stated that an entire piece would count on the 'trustworthiness of the system,' I start running the other way.
