Innocence does not find near so much protection as guilt.
We all have the problem of what do you do with the not-guilty-yet in free and democratic societies where you have the presumption of innocence. It's a very difficult problem.

Guilt is a supreme waste of time and energy.
If you commit a crime, you're guilty.
