Is there anything in Baltimore left to burn?
If not convicted then they are innocent. That's the way our system works. Lots of people like to claim that a "not guilty verdict" is not the same as being found innocent but here in the US, if you're not found guilty, then you're innocent. Because your are always innocent until proven guilty. IMO stating that a "not guilty verdict is not the same as being innocent" is only said by those that disagree with a verdict.
BLM is full of communists. This is borderline treason.
:lamo apdst sees communists everywhere.
Officer Nero of the Baltimore Police was just found innocent of the charges.

As we discovered with Zimmerman - they are actually white-black.
Narrative > Reality
Do they not consider the black judge as one of their community?
Innocent until proven guilty.

In this instance, there was no jury, just the judge. In our system, we are innocent until proven guilty - therefore, a not guilty verdict is a statement that the person is innocent of criminal guilt, not something other than innocent, since innocence is where they began in the court process (again, innocent until proven guilty). Even in OJ's trial, which is why when he was found innocent of criminal guilt, the families of the victims sued him for civil liability and won.
There's a difference between the eyes of the public, and the eyes of the law. Frankly we don't KNOW that OJ is guilty. We assume that he is. Just like many assume that Zimmerman is guilty. As far as the law is concerned though they are not guilty. And according to the law you are innocent until proven guilty. Therefore without a conviction, the law MUST assume that you are innocent. If it didn't work that way then you could be tried as many times as people wanted until they got a conviction. As far as the law is concerned its a black and white issue.
However, the eyes of the public is always fluid. It is the eyes of the public that assumes guilt even if there's a not guilty verdict. The eyes of the public never see everything, but it sure likes to think that it does. Due to that the eyes of the public is not 20/20 vision.
Not when he's seen as clearing someone who murdered a member of their community as innocent of all wrongdoing.

What doesn't make sense is why he was charged in the first place, since another officer admitted making the arrest, and still another officer admitted that it was his responsibility to secure Gray with a seat belt. What does make sense is that this officer was acquitted.

And this is the short & succinct version of my post #65.technically not true.
Officer Nero enjoys a presumption of innocence that ONLY dissipates upon a finding of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. A failure to do that results in a NOT GUILTY verdict not an INNOCENT verdict and when the NG verdict is read, Officer Nero's presumption of innocence remains.

Oh boy look some outlier examples of communists being involved in BLM! Treason I tell yea! Treason! :lamo
I'm blown away by the number in this thread that are struggling to understand courts do not find or declare 'innocence'! :doh
I believe the stumbling black here is the understanding of 'presumptive innocence'. When we 'presume', we 'believe' or 'accept' without knowing. There is a distinct difference 'presumed', and 'known', 'proven', 'ascertained', 'found', etc.
So one arrives at criminal court presumed innocent, but not known. They then are found 'guilty' or 'not guilty', but never found 'innocent'. If they are found 'not guilty' they leave as the came: 'presumed innocent' (but as before, not 'known innocent'). The court does not and cannot determine innocence' or a 'finding of innocence'. The best that can be done is the native presumption, which of course is simply a presumption and not a known fact or determination, and indeed the person may NOT be innocent!
Please tell me this makes sense?

Ridicule. Its all you have, as usual.
The protest crowds are already gathering.
Can this really be considered a racial case since three of the six officers are black and the judge that is deciding the cases is also black?
I think the case changes from black against white to public against cops.
So he is not allowed to apply the law, he just has to do what they think is right.
I think it is better he is not part of their community, and I am sure he would think the same.
Yes I did!I am going to assume you meant stumbling block here.
Nero wasn't charged with murder. Y'all need to slow down. This isn't the Soviet Union.
