re: #145 b_sharp

When does the presumption of innocence start, at arrest, arraignment or trial?

The presumption of innocence is evident throughout the process. When arrested, you are reminded you have the right to avoid self-incrimination, and the burden of proof is on the prosecution to present evidence of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. In cases of a grand jury (and one of the pre-trial proceedings) the government has to show that it has sufficient cause to proceed.
