“GUILTY UNTIL PROVEN INNOCENT”

For an accused person, one of the most critical differences [between American and Mexico] is that under Mexican criminal law, the accused is essentially considered guilty until proven innocent.

Mexico does not allow bail on personal recognizance and therefore a cash bail must be posted (which may not be available depending on the potential sentence).
