Seems to me like his mind is made about the guy being guilty. It’s like you getting fired for being potentially a criminal even though no one knows if you actually are.

If he had already made up his mind he wouldn't be using "potentially"...

Saying “potentially” doesn’t mean much when your actions are what they would be if that person was actually guilty. Like the firing example I used. “We have to let you go because you are potentially guilty” vs “We have to let you go because you were found guilty”. It’s the same outcome but the first one disregards due process.
