I remember pointing out that the changeling? "lynch mob" objective seemed like a really stupid, ban-inducing idea because anybody that lynched anybody on suspicion would almost CERTAINLY be banned immediately for murder as a non-antag etc. etc. People are -scared- of fighting back, not because they'll lose, but because the Great Admin Gods will come down on them because it was the wrong guy, or they weren't REALLY going for blood, and so on, and so on. There's no consistent basis for what you can and can't get away with when it comes to defending yourself and what might be reasonable in one second is ban material in another.
tl;dr: people don't fight back cause they'll get sent to the shadow realm instantaneously if they do it wrong/get the wrong guy, etc., what Grek and ISaidNo said
edit: also, fingerprints? like, really? does anyone really actively do detective work nowadays + what's wrong with a little paranoia if somebody decided to PICK UP AND CARRY AROUND CONTRABAND THEY FOUND rather than reporting it to the proper channels
