Considering he plead not guilty and by the fundamental foundation of our legal system of being presumed innocent, I would say he is exerting innocence with a not guilty plea.

Are you jealous that he is tapping as well as married to the blonde instagram thot?

Actually in our system of justice the plea to a criminal charge is NOT innocent but rather NOT GUILTY.

The difference is that the defendant does NOT have to prove he is innocent but rather the prosecution has to prove he is guilty. If the prosecution does not bear the burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt the defendant is found NOTGUILTY. It has little to do with innocence and every thing to do with carrying the burden of proof.

Guilty people escape conviction all the time. They are not innocent but merely not guilty.
