Sadly the thing that is becoming the norm is that a lot of people in certain crimes are seen as guilty until proven innocent.
If someone is insisting their innocence,the nature of some crimes may mean for theirs and others safety they will need to be kept out of society until their trial but those people are often seen by the public as being guilty anyway because they have been locked away from society until their trial.
I think in the vast majority of cases where people are charged with a crime, they are likely to be guilty, however it should be that people are presumed innocent, until proven guilty after all evidence is presented at a trial.
It's time that was more enforced,especially to people accused of rape for instance, where the guy, guilty or not gets his name and likely photo too splashed all over the papers.
With virtually no apology whatsoever if he then gets cleared at trial or the accusation is withdrawn as being a false accusation/s made anyway.
His life is scarred and near ruined no matter what. However that happens across other crimes too to a lesser extent.
