So your position is that Matt Gaetz is simultaneously not guilty of a crime but also is not *not* guilty of a crime lmao

It’s called “presumption of innocence,” and it means that parties are legally considered innocent unless proven guilty in court. It was formalized in 1895 as far as SCOTUS is concerned but it dates back to the 500s as a doctrine via corpus juris civilis under Justinian. The more you know…

“Not guilty” is the default status in America because citizens have a presumption of innocence until found guilty in a court of law.

Well, for starters, you misspelled it — it’s “nolo contendere,” (I’m guessing neither English nor Latin is your first language) and it has not been used in this case since Matt Gaetz has not been charged with a crime.

In the legal system, the phrase for “not enough evidence to prove allegations beyond a reasonable doubt” is “not guilty” — hope this helps!

It’s 2024. This happened seven years ago. Don’t you think he would have been charged with a crime if there was evidence to support it?

I can’t believe that a guy who was found innocent of an alleged crime could even be allowed as an option tbh
