I don't really know. The only kind I've seen is like the ones on daytime tv.
But usually there's a person being accused from the start. And then them and the person accusing them both get a lawyer, and it's their job to present evidence and argue their case.
Then a group of neutral parties vote, basically, for who they think was right.
[huh. it's probably not going to play out like that here, nahida thinks - or else they would have already been given a suspect? or an accusation would have been made? or... anything, really.
but no names have come up yet. they'll be starting from scratch.]
That does sound more efficient than what we've got to work with so far.
