poetic license
Seriously, hat’s with the iudea that we must “presume innocence”? No, the courts presume innocence. That doesn’t apply to me. Or you, for that matter. It doesn’t even apply to the courtroom people outside the courtroom. And it really doesn’t apply to the prosecution or the defense. Heck, it doesn’t even apply to the judge that far.
Honestly, the entire concept is a polite fiction.
