Innocent Until Proven Guilty:  An indictment contains allegations that a defendant has committed a crime.  Every defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.

 

Some individuals or companies may have been acquitted or pardoned for the offence alleged, may be relief defendants only, or may simply be implicated in certain cases.  Users of the DDDirectory should ensure that they have accurately determined the reasons for inclusion and the final outcome of an alleged offence relating to a particular individual or company by contacting the regulatory or professional body through the link provided in the records.
