With a criminal conviction we're talking about exercising the state's monopoly on violence and coercing an individual to give up their liberty and freedom.
There shouldn't be a differing opinion on guilt. If there is, the state hasn't proven the subject's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. If there is reasonable doubt, the person should be found not guilty.
- qwerty456127 6y agoIs it possible to prove somebody guilty with 100% confidence at all? I doubt anything beyond the realm of mathematical formulae can be proven with 100% confidence.
- jaredmosley 6y agoNo, that's why it is "beyond a reasonable doubt". A guilty conviction is not proving someone guilty, it is saying that your peers have no reason to doubt your guilt.
