Abstract

The principle of innocence has existed since ancient times in Roman Law, although in one of the darkest times of humanity "the Middle Ages" due to the inquisitorial practices of the church mainly, doubt about innocence was synonymous with guilt. In Modernity we find a foundation in the Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen, achieved by the French Revolution of 1789, where the need for a prior trial for any person is raised: since every man is presumed innocent until he is declared guilty. In modern criminal law and constitutional law, the purpose of the presumption of innocence is to preserve freedom.
