its just language.....not guilty means the prosecutor was wrong or didnt present enough evidence to prove you were guilty
the not guilty ruling is just language.....all it means is that we know you are innocent(thereby validating innocence)
you can say you are innocent.....and you are assumed innocent....but you have not been proven innocent......the not guilty ruling just says that there is no reason to believe you arent innocent
