No, it’s because of ‘the presumption of innocence’.
No-one is confirmed as guilty of a crime or offence until they’ve been found guilty of the crime/offence in a court of law.
It’s always the case that a person is alleged to have done something, up until the moment when the court decides that they are guillty , or (as does happen, you know), decides that they are not guilty i.e. the allegations were false/incorrect/unprovable.
Hopefully he pleads guilty so no trial is needed.
so until the lawyers say so, all scientifically 6 sigmas are mere alleged realities and truths
Lawyers are not needed.
There are, or have been, other kinds of courts whiich rule(d) over various other realms and jurisdictions e.g. eccleseastical courts, admiralty courts.
Science rules on matters within its realm, by means of the scientific method that we know so well.
