A lot of times in Media, Television, Movies, Games etc. you’ll see this leader of a huge crime organization where its shown that the government or law enforcement of that universe obviously know that they’re involved in illegal activity, but they “don’t have enough evidence to put them in jail” This is where my question comes in, what stops this government from just doing it anyway? If they obviously know they’re evil than why can’t they just stop them anyway, Its not like keeping them out of jail will be MORE helpful for the world?

If they can put Al Capone in jail without sufficient proof to even attempt a trial – then they can do the same to me, they can do the same to you.
A pretty good rule of thumb, is to think of what you’d like the court to do if it was your turn tomorrow.

I like to think that keeping the justice system just is much more helpful than anything that could happen to one man.
