What is the different between being convicted and being charged with a crime?
Being charged with the crime is a formal accusation by the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS- In England and Wales) that you have committed a crime. In the USA, the law enforcement or prosecutor charges I am led to believe. Same principle however. *It certainly does not mean you are guilty, and everyone is innocent until proven guilty by a court of law. It then has to go to court for a conviction or acquittal (guilty or not guilty) Thus, a conviction is basically a finding of guilt for the charge by the court (who represent the state and the community at large) that you have committed a crime and are to be punished for such offence, this is sentencing.
