I am unsure of who "we" is in this question. A person charged with a crime is afforded due process in this country which means that no matter the amount of evidence stacked against him or her, the accused has a right to proceed through the criminal justice process: arraignment, preliminary hearing, pretrial motions, trial, sentencing, appeals. often this requires many court appearances. In this particular case based on the charges I expect there will be many more future court dates.
