In the trial of every criminal case, a judge must rigidly test the
State’s evidence of guilt in order to ensure that such evidence adheres to
the basic rules of admissibility before pronouncing an accused guilty of the
crime charged upon such evidence. Nothing less is demanded of the judge;
otherwise, the guarantee of due process of law is nullified. The accused
need not adduce anything to rebut evidence that is discredited for failing
the test. Acquittal should then follow.
