When the accused states whether they are guilty or not guilty?
When the accused states that they are guilty, they are admitting to committing the crime they have been charged with. If they plead not guilty, it means they are denying the charges against them and the case will proceed to trial where the prosecution will have to prove their guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
How would our legal system be different if an accused person had to prove his or her innocence instead of the government having to prove the person's guilt?
If an accused person had to prove their innocence, it would reverse the burden of proof, which is currently on the prosecution. This would likely lead to an increase in wrongful convictions, as it can be challenging for individuals to prove a negative (their innocence). It would also undermine the presumption of innocence, a fundamental principle in our legal system.

The Girondins didn't want or have to prove the royal family guilty. Everybody accepted the guilt of the king and queen as a fact after their flight to Varennes, in which they tried to flee France into Austria so that they could use foreign assistance to attack the revolutionary government. In fact, the Girondins were the people who were against King Louis XVI's execution. The Girondins wanted the king to be exiled. It was the Jacobins who got Louis executed.
