Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The type of defense reasoning where prosecution must prove that the defendant committed the offense is "presumption of innocence". In this type of defense reasoning, the burden of proof is on the prosecution to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant committed the offense. "Reasonable doubt" and "alibi" are also types of defense reasoning but they do not necessarily require the prosecution to prove the defendant committed the offense, instead they focus on creating doubt or providing an alternative explanation for the defendant's actions.
