Really? So, say I walk up to a news reporter who is in the middle of a live newscast and blow his brains out on national TV, then I'm not guilty until I go thru a court trial? The evidence speaks for itself. Same as for KSM who claims to have masterminded 9/11 or the shoe bomber who was caught red handed by several people on the flight he was trying to blow up.
And yeah, in cases like KSM or the shoe bomber, I am serious about the pointlessness of a trial. There's no doubt the guy did it. Why pretend otherwise?
