How convenient for the good guys - but what if they happen to be
wrong about whether someone is "so obviously guilty of wrongdoings"? 
Does it somehow not count?  

After all Barty Crouch Sr. - who was "power mad" (according to JKR's
new website update) but still risked a lot fighting DE's - thought
Sirius was "so obviously guilty of wrongdoings".  Is it really enough
just to say "Oooops!  My bad!"?

There has to be some kind of mechanism to determine guilt/innocence
beyond the subjective and possibly incorrect one of common
perception.
