Though I understand your argument, this is exactly the logic used to undermine people's rights. Initially, rights are only eroded for murderers or pedophiles or rapists, but it doesn't take long for it to be used against someone who tries to expose a police department's corruption. The most heinous cases are where it is most important to not set bad precedent, because those are where the seeds of abuse of power are sown.
