You can't just convict someone on vibes
No you can't. You can however refuse to give them a job because they keep making inappropriate remarks about women and multiple women have accused them of sexual abuse, rape and harassment.
EXACTLY. You don't need to "trust", you can look at the comments that were consistently made in regards to women, the vile behavior he engaged in, the known relationships, and the week court cases, i.e the evidence that was there in plain sight but people chose to ignore
Fortunately pretty much everyone agrees
It's not called "vibes", it's called "witness testimony" and every country on earth totally does convict people based on that
There was just a high profile case involving 5 NHL players that went on for years with no actual proof of a rape happening because a claim was taken seriously. They were found not guilty because in Canada the Crown has to prove a crime actually happened you don't just trust someone without proof. People are claiming they probably did it, and let's be clear they probably did, but we don't convict people for probably doing something.
(Insert someone finding an example of a clearly innocent person being convicted to claim it's the norm)
