What is the difference between innocent and not guilty?

Innocent means you are innocent of a crime.. That is you did not commit it. A court (jury/judge) will not find someone "innocent". They can't say that you did not commit a crime, they can only decide for "not guilty" if the evidence presented is enough that you are believed to have committed a crime (guilty) or not (not guilty).
