    Hi Justis,

    "Innocent people get convicted and guilty people get acquitted, the justice system gets it wrong some times."

    Right, but the idea of our system of needing to prove guilt beyond reasonable doubt rather than needing to prove innocence is that there will be fewer innocent people being convicted than guilty people being acquitted.

    Cheers!
