    Reading you comment I searched for the differences between being “not guilty” and being “innocent” and boy I didn’t know enough about the US justice system. I thought a “not guilty” verdict was the same as “the guy didn’t do it”. I stand corrected, though. Thanks for your input.

      I’m not sure where you’re from. But that principle by no means is limited to the US but pretty much present in every western country.
