I think we need to be mindful that anything used against a bad person might eventually be used against a good person. It is why due process exists. This time the outcome was positive, but what precedent does this set?

Due process is a concept of law. It's not applicable to the relationships between private individuals. If a person wants to break up with someone they are dating, do they owe the the other person due process?

It sets the precedent that we collectively value having a society where we can expect standards of behavior to exceed the bare minimum that will keep you out of jail. Are you actually confusing rights and values?
