What if you make it such that if a townie was lynched, you could choose to bring one of his guilty voters to court?

Of course, it would be a problem with clicking before the day ends, but still... It could be a possibility, if there was a way around the "click quickly in the few seconds after you realize they were a town".

Like you said, players get acquitted because they convince the town. But players brought before the court do not speak; the Jurors read their investigative result and will, determine if it's in line with their defense the previous day, and then make a decision based on information, not the defendant's ability to convince.
