Yes, it certainly does help if the people competent in investigations (and not corrupt) come earlier in the process, rather than later.
Cardinal Cipriani might not be prison, but he has had this accusation for over 5 years, and no process that could actually determine guilt or innocence has even started. Cardinal Pell was exonerated 3 years after his charge.
I donтАЩt know, Cardinal Cipriani does not necessarily seem like a reliable reporter of events here. I would like to see clarification from the appropriate Vatican authorities. (Note: I had never heard of Cardinal Cipriani before today and know nothing about him, but if everything reported here is true, his story seems confused at best.)

Yes, but I don't it should cost 400 days in a maximum security prison to clear your name of bogus abuse allegations.

I wouldn't consider him reliable. I don't consider the Vatican authorities to be reliable either.
There are millennia of good reasons for public trials, in favor of some accused, and against others.
