You're making a straw man argument. No one is arguing about "admissibility of evidence". As noted in this link, https://billnettleslaw.com/differences-between-civil-and-criminal-cases/, the standard of evidence to get a conviction is different:

"In a criminal case, the state must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant committed the crime of which he's been accused. By contrast, a civil plaintiff must merely show that it is more likely than not that the accusations behind the claim are true. This is called the “preponderance of evidence” standard."
