Seen as guilty by who? We know the police do, as they admit as much. They explicitly say they have a policy of believing the victim at which point they sign up to the prosecution rather than investigating both sides. This is not in dispute - they openly admit it, usually as a reassurance to "victims". By the courts? Well if you look at the carriage of a trial, the fact the accuser gets to give evidence over a TV, advice to juries about "myths" (but never the myth that women never lie about rape), tight controls over what evidence the defense can even raise or how they can test the evidence against them (but not the prosecution)...the system is stacked against the accused in a way that is miles away from a fair trial. Simply allowing a trial without evidence could be said to be guilty until proven innocent. The jury? Well that varies, but given the proportion of not guilty verdicts, thankfully not most of the time. Juries aren't perfect, but the reason we have them is to protect the accused from people like you. If you had an ounce of self awareness you might put yourself in Mark Pearson's shoes and ask, if that was you, would you still be shilling for the CPS? https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/man-falsely-accused-of-sexually-assault-on-actress-wants-apology-from-cps-over-bemusing-case-a6877036.html https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/man-falsely-...
