I agree, and this works with our current level of technology. The problem is when the technology advances far beyond what we have today. For the sake of argument, assume we have the technology to read someone's thoughts beyond any shadow of a doubt. Innocent people are no longer convicted as a result. Great, right? Well, not exactly. Even if such technology was used only to acquit, the very fact that a defendant was still undergoing proceedings would be an implicit form of guilt.
