Yes, I do believe in the right to a trial. The right to trial gives us an opportunity to reevaluate our own laws and see where they may conflict of fall short and so create room to improve them as we evolve.
If you take away the right to a trial and just throw the law books as they are at people, with no flexibility and human consideration, our laws will likely remain archaic and most likely oppressive. The law must be in accordance with the people of the time, for after all, they are the country.
Also, you will find that circumstances around crimes vary a lot and considerations for these variables ought to be made. A non-flexible approach that does not involve these considerations quickly becomes inconsiderate and perhaps even oppressive.
A trial also reduces the chance of bias and irregularity in the dishing out of justice. Leaving the fate of a person in the hands of one person's interpretation and determination can be a slippery slope.
