    Back to your point about abuse, though,

    … except you don’t. Trial by jury is a decent system that decouples justice from political power. In this case, the politicians decided that was an inconvenience and did away with it.

    What we should be worried about it is actual abuses, not potential abuses.

    Agreed. This was an actual abuse.
