I would entirely agree but police also have a horrible track record when it comes to these things. The mob justice happens because the cops can’t be trusted to do justice, and haven’t been shown themselves worthy of that trust for generations when it comes to sexual assault. (Sometimes the cops themselves are the ones doing the assaulting!)

Does mob justice have a wonderful track record? Just because police and justice system are not perfect doesn't mean that the "alternative" is the one that should be considered right.

I think mob justice has a horrible track record! I think it happens because the public has lost all faith in police, which is equally horrible.

Yeah. Unless cops are all saints we should rely on mob justice.

We should not - it's a dangerous idea which gets people's lives destroyed. "Innocent until guilty" is an important concept which mob justice often forgets which causes a lot of damage.

Just because one system is broken, doesn't mean that we have to replace it with another broken one.

For the record, I disagree with mob justice! I just also disagree that cops can be relied on right now for sexual assault cases. Currently, there is no real fair place for sexual assault victims to reliably receive real justice, and that is a tragedy in of itself.
