D I S C L A I M E R S:


1.          ACCUSED ARE PRESUMED INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY


§ 5.09 Criminal Presumptions [60-65] (Source: LexisNexis.com) Neither Rule 301 nor any other rule of evidence governs presumptions in criminal cases. As with presumptions in civil cases, confusing terminology is responsible for many of the problems in this context. For example, the presumption of innocence is not a true presumption; the accused is not required to prove any basic fact in order to trigger the presumption of innocence. Rather, the “presumption of innocence” is the traditional way of stating that the burden of persuasion is on the prosecution.
