You don't incarcerate someone for life because they are "most likely the actual murderer". You prove they are first. If you don't, the presumption of innocence kicks in.

If guilty, I have full faith that they ultimately will face a higher Judge.

Or would you do away with "Innocent until proven guilty" or the standard of "reasonable doubt"?

If so, you are more of a threat to people far and wide in this country than some chick who has been found not guilty of murdering her child.

What is this, lynch mob night?

There’s plenty of circumstantial evidence. There is no such thing as absolute proof in the mathematical sense so you will always have to go with what is most likely.
