What is the difference between everybody is innocent until proven guilty and nobody is guilty until proven not to be innocent?
Reasonable doubt is the measure used to prove someone guilty in a US court of law. The person is judged on just the one act. It seems to me that the opposite--nobody is guilty until proven not to be innocent--would not stand up to the need to punish or incarcerate those who would be a danger to us. In fact, the opposite would occur since innocence (the absence of a certain behavior) would bring in many more factors that would confuse or obliterate the issue.
What must the prosecution prove in order to get a guilty verdict?
There is no finding of GUILTY or NOT GUILTY in a civil trial. The verdict is announced as either "FOR THE PLAINTIFF" or "FOR THE DEFENSE." The burden of proof in a civil trial is "THE WEIGHT OF THE EVIDENCE" as opposed to the criminal court standard of "GUILT BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT." They may sound similar but they are NOT the same.
Why are there police men in the world?
