The only thing required is "proof beyond a reasonable doubt." Not ALL doubt, just 'reasonable' doubt.
The "burden of proof" is the amount of evidence and/or testimony necessary to convince the court or jury of your guilt.
The state made a serious accusation against its treasurer based on the audit. An indictment is not a proof of guilt, only an accusation that a crime was committed.
No, the amount of proof needed for detention and for going to trial is different. For detention, the probable cause standard is relatively low and requires enough evidence to establish a reasonable belief that a crime has been committed. On the other hand, to go to trial, a higher standard of proof, such as beyond a reasonable doubt, is typically required to establish guilt.
The Deputy - 1959 Proof of Guilt 1-7 was released on: USA: 24 October 1959
The standard of proof to establish guilt in a criminal case is beyond a reasonable doubt.
Sea Hunt - 1958 Proof of Guilt 2-33 was released on: USA: 16 August 1959
The burden of proof is on the prosecutor. They must prove beyond reasonable doubt that the accused is guilty. The defense only needs to raise reasonable doubt about the defendant's guilt. If jurors believe the defendant may have committed the crime, but have reasonable doubt then they must find the defendant not guilty.
Retain an attorney and file a petition with the court to have your case re-opened on the basis of the discovery of exculpatory evidence tending to prove your non-guilt.
Proof...
Fouler on this question: elaborate!!
The burden of proof is BELIEF, BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT, that the accused committed the crime.
