I think that "innocent until proven guilty" is not so much a
theory, as it is a well-intentioned cliche. After all, "Not guilty
until proven guilty" doesn't have much of a ring to it, and sounds
rather self-evident, to boot.
What is self-evident, and rather obvious, is that, innocent = not guilty,
and not guilty = innocent. Why there should be disagreement on such a
simple
thing, is amazing!!
Not just self-evident and rather obvious, but wrong, too.
