Acquittal |
This happens when the defendant is found not guilty. |
Being found not guilty isn't necessarily a determination of innocence. A court may find a person not guilty because the criminal justice agencies couldn't find enough evidence for a conviction. An acquittal may be the result of a lack of suitable evidence. |
