not gulity
NO ONE gets out of court with a finding of INNOCENT. There is no such finding in the law. You are either GUILTY or NOT guilty.
The statement "I am not guilty" is made because the person believes they are innocent, rather than for any other reason.
If you are declared to be not guilty by a court, then you are acquitted and go free (the court has found you innocent of the charges brought against you).If you declare yourself to be not guilty, then you are denying the accusations made against you. A court will then hold a trial to determine the truthfulness of your claim.
Protectorate
When you are accused of a crime, the law does not immediately treat you as being guilty. But, after you're properly found guilty under the law, you are treated differently-- you lose rights, you are punished, etc. The key to the American system of justice is that everyone is treated the same until that legal decision is made as to guilt or innocence. It has to be that way in order for the system to work. Since the law does not require anyone to prove their own innocence, they have to be presumed innocent until and unless they are found guilty by the proper process. If you take a few minutes to imagine how it would work the other way around, you'll immediately see the wisdom of this system.

The jury finds Tom Robinson guilty of raping Mayella Ewell. Tom Robinson was innocent, but because Robert "Bob" Ewell knew that no one (the white populace) would believe Robinson, (and that Ewell made up a "convincing" testimony about Tom Robinson raping Mayella), the jury found Robinson guilty of all charges despite the fact that it was obvious he was innocent. The verdict was that he was guilty, and was sentenced to death.
