[tor-relays] How can we trust the guards?

Known to whom? Is there a Tor police that researches "unknown" guards? How do you measure "known"? How do they become "known"? Something akin to key signing parties? Secret meetings in Munich biergartens?

Conversely, if someone installs a high performance relay, during the first 70 days is there a secret police investigation giving the operator a clean bill of health or conversely marking her as a rogue?
