This is an age old problem in the criminal justice system. A solved problem.

After a lot of trials with various approaches, we settled on letting some criminals go free over convicting someone on weak evidence. Second we decided that trials should be open and evidence viewable by default.

Finally you generally have the option to give some security to stay out of jail during trial.

Closing a google account is a punishment worse than many criminal convictions. And will only get more important as we progress to an all digital existence.
