Beyond a Reasonable Doubt: The standard in a criminal
case requiring that the jury be satisfied to a moral certainty
that every element of a crime has been proven by the prosecution.
This standard of proof does not require that the state establish
absolute certainty by eliminating all doubt, but it does require
that the evidence be so conclusive that all reasonable doubts are
removed from the mind of the ordinary person.
