What if you had two guests but you lied about which one beat you up while the other one was out?
What if they were twins?
What if the person was wearing a mask that you knew your guest owned, but it wasn't actually him?
You're entering into this with the assumption that you know who beat you up. The police don't have anything other than your assertion. That's why corroborating evidence is needed.
- lazide 2y agoDon’t forget the chance that they beat themselves up to get the other person in trouble and/or try to extort them. (I wish this was that fantastical a scenario)
- bee_rider 2y agoI mean, these are sort of fanciful soap opera scenarios, haha. More likely, if a guest beats you up, there will be some other witnesses and some motives. Anyway, police can get search warrants and work it out, or like… maybe the guest will feel guilty and admit what they did, perhaps after a stern talking-to along with the implication that they’ll probably be found out after some investigation anyway.

- HeyLaughingBoy 2y ago> police can get search warrants and work it out ROFLMAO!
- bee_rider 2y agoIt is a problem if police don’t do their job well, but we shouldn’t paper over that problem by locking people up without evidence.
