Burden of proof
One of the most important aspects of our justice system is that any person who is merely accused of ANY crime is presumed innocent until proven guilty. The burden of proof rests solely with government to prove each and every element of the alleged criminal offense. The elements of the crime must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt. This is the highest burden of proof that is used anywhere in both our civil and criminal legal systems. These are critically important constitutional rights that our forefathers literally died for.The government’s lawyers and police will frequently try to minimize this burden to make their case.
You may be asking sitting there reading this wondering what all of this means. Imagine for a moment that someone wanted to take your children away from you and say you are an unfit parent. How much proof would you want before a court said you couldn’t be with your children? I imagine your answer to that question is that you naturally would demand mountains of evidence to support those claims and someone would be in for a Texas-size fight. The beyond a reasonable doubt standard used in criminal cases is higher than the standard that is used to terminate your rights as a parent. In other words, before the government labels someone as a criminal, they have to bring those mountains of evidence to meet their burden on each and every portion of your case.
