Let's assume a stupid robber caught just in front of the bank with with a bag full of banknotes. Imagine him also on a lot of photos and videos taken inside the bank during the irruption. In addition let's assume he previously disclosed his detailed plan to a colleague of him. What have to be done? First of all the director of the bank has to identify every banknote to proof that they have really been stolen from the bank. Then the culprit himself has to confirm he has done it. If he denies he can't be guilty! Then the final step has to done. A self-constituted judge without any knowledge of securing of evidence or jurisprudence is going to make the definite decision. If this outstanding expert absolves the person accused that one is going to keep the money. That's the way it works, isn't it? Volker
