I keep getting hung up on that quaint old document, the Constitution. Real he-men just act, they don't worry about minutiae like trials and evidence. Besides, as we've seen time and again, people that everyone knows to be guilty keep getting off on technicalities in our hopelessly hamstrung court system. I mean, when you have to prove a whole bunch of stuff, and the accused gets to look at and challenge the evidence, and ask a bunch of questions of the witnesses . . . Well, let's just say a well-placed (Or not so well-placed, does it really matter?) missile is so much more efficient and yields a far more satisfying result.
