Presumed Innocent Novels & Stories

DANTE As I stood there, staring out at the bustling city of New York, I couldn't help but feel a sense of frustration. The city didn't stop functioning just because I was at the receiving end of a mishap. People walked around comfortably, without any worry of what might happen next. It was as if Anna's death hadn't even happened. Just like the court of justice believes that nobody is guilty until proven otherwise, I also believe that nobody is innocent until proven otherwise. In that case, one of these people walking around the city could be the reason behind Anna's death.

Although her eyes gave away her emotion, still, she never failed to surprise him with that new look she gave him. “We’ll do that but..” he trailed off. “Our staff had also touched the flash drive earlier, so, the fingerprints might be thrown out of the bin and wont catch the real culprit,” he stated calmly. “I never touched it,” she responded, “It’s enough evidence to prove me innocent and cross me out of the issue” “You’re right. But that may harm Benny big time if ever his fingerprint will be the only one they found,” he muttered. He’s not that bad to let innocent people be harmed. If there's someone who needs to be in jail, it should be the one who deserves it.

As I finally started to drift off to sleep, one thought kept running through my mind, How do you prove you're innocent when everyone has already decided you're guilty? I guess I was going to have to figure that out. If I could. If it wasn't already too late.

"And I also appreciate the members of the press who are carrying out their duties tonight." Several reporters exchanged glances, drawn in by his composure. The microphones that had been jostling for position lowered slightly, giving Adrian room to speak clearly. "However, I'd like to remind everyone of one thing." Adrian's gaze shifted from one camera to another, his eyes sharp. "This country is governed by the rule of law." His voice remained calm, almost effortless. "Every citizen is entitled to the presumption of innocence." He paused again, allowing his words to sink into the minds of the reporters. "As of today, there has not been a single court ruling declaring me guilty."

CAIN'S POV The metal cuffs bit into my wrists. There were cold and tight. I leaned back in the metal chair and stared at the two detectives across the table. One of them kept tapping his fucking pen. The other just watched me like I was already guilty. I thought the law said every man is presumed fucking innocent until proven the fuck guilty? All I could think about was Ciara. How she looked bent over that boardroom table. How she screamed my name when she came. How her pussy clenched around me like she never wanted to let go.

My mother said looking at herself in the mirror. "I'm meeting up with her at The Vista club this weekend," I said adjusting my tie "Do you think she knows about what the family is really into?" She questions me "No she sounds too...innocent they must not want to break her too soon," I said "And I'm guessing you will?" She replied smirking evilly "Definitely besides this could work in our favor, the news only showed her in a mask probably not wanting to reveal her identity as of yet," I said

He had no reason to kill Eric Becker, he was a foreign citizen with no official political relations. Cases like this one never went away until they found someone to take the fall. In law, a suspect was innocent until proven guilty, but with Jackson, he was guilty in the eyes of the law. But to her, he was guilty until proven innocent. He chose this path, he made the decision to take the fall for a crime he did not commit, and she wanted to close this case and take the credit. But she also wanted to find the real culprit. She had no doubt that the people in the pictures she pulled up, knew the entire story.

The old detective shook his head meaningfully: "There are many ways to kill people, and I've met people with high IQs who conceal their murders by playing tricks, so it's not hard to create an alibi." "As far as I know, the law in this country is the presumption of innocence, right?" Emma Rosy raised her eyes and asked rhetorically. "People can't be as rigid as machines when it comes to handling cases." The old detective retaliated with cryptic words, then brought up the feud between Emma Rosy and Marisa Miller, and even put the scene he had just seen to use: "Marisa Darcyhas hurt you and your daughter many times, and we know that you are impatient and irritable, and it is not impossible to

It remains to find out more about Annie and how she might or might not be involved in it. I made a mental note to talk to Chris, he had to explain to me how and when he met Annie. And if truly she was his mate then there would be a problem. if she is found guilty. INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY was a mantra my father told me that I should follow and I had every intention of doing just that. "It's almost 4:00 pm where has the time gone," Justin asked. I knew him too well to understand that he was about to ask about food, I did not have to wait that long.

I was scared that I might have broken his heart, and that was surprisingly leading me to an eventual cardiac arrest. “ What the hell are you talking about?” I asked, firstly taking the denial stance. If there was anything that I had learned about while reading about law and enforcement; apart from economic laws, it is the fact that a defendant should always plead innocent before the court. Whether or not it was outrightly obvious that the defendant was guilty, as far as there is no substantial evidence during the trial, never you plead guilty. Circumstantial evidence will never be used for a ruling in court, and the only evidence that Hazel must've had; that was even if he had any, would be
