I refer to this quite often in my weekly news posts, so I will create this post to link to help support the importance of this.
I've provided some links below: note that they are to court cases and legal commentary, and include distressing content such as deception, abuse, violence, and misuse of power, etc:
- “how _’s lies about grooming and abuse unravelled”;
- Encyclopaedia Britannica - “Great Purge”/“Purge Trial”, “The Show Trials in the USSR” (The History Learning Site), Wikipedia - “Show Trial”;
- Australian Attorney-General's Department on the Presumption of Innocence (accessed January, 2023);
- Innocent Until Proven Guilty – A Basic Guide to Criminal Law (Sydney Criminal Lawyers; accessed January, 2023);
- Innocent Until Proven Guilty: The History and Current Application of the Presumption of Innocence - Pumphrey Law (USA, accessed January, 2023);

- Wikipedia: The Presumption of Innocence (accessed January, 2023);
- “presumption of innocence doesn’t mean a suspect is innocent, leading Sydney barrister warns”; and

I may add to this over time.
