What is the name of your state?I live in Texas. Recently I have read newspaper articles where the journalist stated that a defendant was "Found innocent of all charges"...
It has always been my understanding that there were only TWO basic verdicts available in a court of law. "GUILTY" and "NOT GUILTY" with varying conditions such as "Not Guilty by reason of Insanity", etc...
Has this changed? If so, when did Innocent become an allowable verdict?
