28. Some people love to play judge, jury, and executioner

It's part of the lust for revenge that can consume without consideration of or concern for minor things like actual guilt (or level of guilt). The same thing that had people livid over Casey Anthony being acquitted (because she "seemed" guilty even though there was no hard evidence) or had people assuming DSK was guilty of rape and should pay. It feeds a primal urge to feel safe by making sure "the bad guy" is known and punished (also what leads to stereotyping and ostracizing of groups...). I unfortunately have come to expect it from the general populace but it really saddens me when I see progressives fall into that trap.
