The commission system provides for all of the due process protections except ______.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The commission system does indeed presume the defendant innocent until proven guilty (A), ensures the defendant is represented by independent, appointed military counsel (B), and prohibits the introduction of evidence obtained through torture or in violation of the Detainee Treatment Act (DTA) (D). However, it does not determine guilt based on probable cause (C); probable cause is a standard used primarily for determining the legality of arrests or searches, not for establishing guilt in a trial. Guilt in a trial is determined based on a higher standard, such as "beyond a reasonable doubt" in criminal cases.
