The term “innocent until proven guilty” needs to be discarded.
The word “until” sounds like a guilty verdict is a foregone conclusion, like a kangaroo court.
The word “until” should be replaced with “unless.”
Innocent unless proven guilty.

Here is an interesting state case from Texas in 1878.
Jennings v. State, 5 Tex. Crim. App. 298, at 300-01 (1878).
“We believe that portion of the act which provides that, in case of conviction, the defendant shall forfeit to the county the weapon or weapons so found on or about his person is not within the scope of legislative authority. * * * One of his most sacred rights is that of having arms for his own defence and that of the State. This right is one of the surest safeguards of liberty and self-preservation.”
