Please. If you are accused of being a child molester, does it mean that we should all consider you guilty? But we should not quibble about such technicalities

Please.
If you are accused of being a child molester, does it mean that we should all consider you guilty? But we should not quibble about such technicalities as you so blithely claim.
"Innocent until proven guilty". That's how the law works (and should)
- jamesaguilar 14y agoIf I had openly admitted the facts and several reliable parties had corroborated them? Feel free to call me a child molester before my conviction in that case. Don't throw me in jail before proving it, of course, but you needn't qualify every single thing you say with "alleged." If the facts aren't pretty well established, then of course it is wise to be more judicious.

- nkassis 14y agoNo one is denying that he did download those documents. What is mostly likely getting you downvoted is your assumption that his acts are felonies and that he would have been found guilty. That is debatable and why it would require a trial. That's why I would suggest not labeling someone a felon when no jury has had a chance to decide.
- jamesaguilar 14y ago> your assumption that his acts are felonies and that he would have been found guilty I understand that that is debatable. I don't view these things as foregone conclusions, only as highly likely outcomes. I'm not aware of any serious observers of the case who disagree, but if they exist it would be helpful to know about them.
