The Criminal Trial

A criminal trial is a legal process where a person accused of a crime is presented before a court to determine guilt or innocence. The prosecution presents evidence and arguments to prove the defendant committed the crime, while the defense challenges this evidence and presents their case. A judge or jury then reviews the evidence and decides whether the defendant is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. If guilty, the court imposes a sentence or punishment. The process ensures fair consideration of evidence and rights, aiming to deliver justice based on the law.
