Lesson 5-Twelve Angry Men(Part One) iii Translation In some countries in the West, there is a principle guiding a criminal court: the court must prove that accused person's guilt beyond reasonable doubt in other words, the accused is held innocent until proved guilty. Reasonable doubt refers to the doubt that could arise in the mind of an ordinary, impartial, honest, reasonable and cautious person with reference to the accused's guilt In theory the concept of holding the accused inn until proved guilty makes sure that a case is not misjudged an an innocent person is not unjustly treated. In the one-act play nd that re Angry Men, Juror No. 8 uses this concept to save the boy's life. He raises one reasonable doubt after another until the other jurors agree that there is no evidence to prove that the boy is guilty. However, in many other cases, this practice may also help criminals to escape punishment. If a criminal is very rich, he can hire very competent lawyers to defend him. If his lawyers are experienced and teeped in the law, and ready to defend anyone for money it wouldn't be too difficult for them to pick holes in the testimo ny of the witnesse and raise reasonable" doubts. Moreover, a lawyer is trained to ignore questions of right and wrong, guilt or innocence, and try to find ways to keep his client out of court and out of jail. WBTLE The end of translation
