who are you to attack me?
They are innocent until they are proven guilty.
That is the law in the United States of America.
Besides, you chose to take my comment/reply to another and twist it as a singular statement.
Please try to stay within the context of the discourse.
the United States Constitution guarantees that an accused is "..innocent until proven guilty.."
the meaning of "..innocent until proven guilty.." derives from the fifth amendment
What this means, in plain terms, is that constitutionally you cannot be executed, imprisoned, or fined without the proper course of justice taking place. As you found out, due process, itself, is not defined in the constitution, but is universally recognized as meaning what we term as "a fair trial."
