Trial by ordeal here.
The only way to get to the real truth of guilt.
The only way to get to the real truth of guilt.
Truth is not slander/libel, and no damages can be claimed from libel/slander/fraud/defamation where no damage was done. Despite the general (and often well earned) perception of America as unduly litigous, I think those two principles invaluable (though not infallible) barriers to frivolous/malicious suits.
The part of me that likes trial by ordeal, meanwhile, is always deterred by the much larger part that believes in free will.

Yeah, but you got this way after one beer. It took me about a 750 mL bottle of vodka.

No. I didn't ask for cocktail suggestions. We'll drink whatever we drink straight.
