Nothing to do with being nice or a good citizen. Merely respect for the legal process, burden of proof an all that.

Yes. That's always the excuse. I would take the view that my taxes have already paid for this person to be investigated, charged and tried, so finding them not guilty would essentially amount to me wasting all my money that's already been spent. I can't stand that sort of waste, so I think the only sane thing to do is send them down.
