Also also, voting "innocent" does not mean you are good-willed. By any means, voting "innocent" on a Mafia member makes you look guilty. It can also show cowardice if somebody votes 'innocent' out of fear of jesters. I've also seen enough Jester plays, alliances between evil roles, and truces/pacts to know that voting innocent doesn't mean you, too, are good-willed. Let me paint you a picture. You are in a crime with three friends, one of your friends committed murder and is on trial for the death sentence, and you're put on the jury.

The jury collectively agrees that this man should not be put to death, and is innocent.

Do you say "No, I know this guy's evil let's KILL HIM "

or

Do you say "Yes, I agree with the majority and say that this man is innocent."

I think it is quite justified if the good-willed citizens think someone is innocent and innocent him respectively. I also think it's justified that someone would innocent their friend if given a chance.

Also if someone is cowardly, they are cowardly, they are really feeling guilty about that person's death, so there's some good-will in that. Fear of jesters.... yeah that's a little selfish but I don't care because that is an in-game explanation and the "kill the good willed" is about lore. The last point is another in-game reason.
