Yes it sucks, but there is nothing you can really do about it.

People lie all the time about the crimes they've committed but they still get prosecuted.
If some guy robs the liquor store and gets nailed he doesn't get to walk away if he says "nope, wasn't me".
If I beat the crap out of some guy on the street there should be some consequences, even if he is drunk and it is 3 in the morning.
