Is that really a "legal fact" or just a common presumption? The word
"innocent" does not appear anywhere in the Constitution. Look for

If you know of an actual law which states the above, please quote it.


Amendments V and VI describe a process that would be meaningless
unless one is presumed innocent until proven otherwise.
