A jury convicted a Florida man of first-degree murder Wednesday in the 2018 strangling and beating death of his wife after she refused to appear on a home renovation reality TV show, prosecutors said.
David Tronnes, 55, killed his wife, Shanti Cooper-Tronnes, on April 24, 2018, in the couple’s home in the Orlando neighborhood of Delaney Park, the State Attorney’s Office for the Ninth Judicial Circuit said in a statement Wednesday.
The full quote is "innocent until proven quilty in the eyes of the law." The court is trying to discover guilt or not, not actually creating it. If you killed someone you killed someone. Whether the court has enough evidence to convict you of it doesn't matter. You're either guilty or not of the act. The court mat not find enough evidence to convict you, so they'll find you "not guilty" (which I'll note is not finding you innocent). However, just like you might not find your keys, guilt or innocence exists regardless of the findings. Maybe the search just wasn't good enough. The law just may not view you as guilty if it couldn't be proven beyond a reasonable doubt.
