> innocent until proven guilty is still the fairest justice system

Justice system administered by a state where the repercussions include imprisonment and death - absolutely. But HR is not a judicial system and should not be viewed as one. I think I take your point to be just a descriptive observation of "our social discussion reflects a habit based on our exposure to judicial systems" and not a normative statement. Even if it's the former, I think it's naive and ignores a very real culture of doubt and victim-blaming exclusive to sexual violence.

Given the US's employer-based health care system, HR can sentence some people to death.

That's a fair point. And we should rectify that by fixing our healthcare system, not by making it harder for assault survivors.
