nope, that's called due process under the rule of law. Innocent until proven guilty. His guilt doesn't seem to have been established beyond reasonable doubt, if I understand correctly.

Now, if the police had turned up damning evidence, he would not have been sent home, but sentenced. And hopefully been put in jail for a very long time.
