However if it just "Check logs, he did it." you can't really operate on the logs either because the admin can't get any true/useful information out of it. 
There needs to be a combination between evidence and log checking if the logs is going to be used. If the admin only has the logs to base his verdict on there's a big chance of getting it wrong. The logs should only be used if the user has a proper explanation or evidence so the admin can match it up with the log.

That just means the admin is going to access the logs to verify the proof anyway, because the logs will clarify for sure and prove the evidence is right. All I'm saying is imagine the below scenario:

I and 3 other users get CDM'd by a new player in an Ambulance. I explain in full providing the Ambulance drivers Steam ID, Steam name & In-game name/ID. I provide the time that it happened and maybe a screenshot of me and other bodies on the floor. If I requested a staff member to check the logs at this time he would easily be able to find the user that was driving the Ambulance from the information I have provided, even though I didn't get a definitive recording of him CDM'ing us.

Does that sort of clear it up a bit better for everyone? Last thing I want to see is a report description saying "Check logs at about 2am yesterday please".

Couldn't sum it up better myself.
