He mentioned something about when you are sued the law consideres you guilty until proven innoncent.
is that true over there? seems pretty fucked up.

its innocent until proven guilty, and thats only in criminal cases..
in the states, for a civil case, it takes a "preponderance of evidence" to win - the legal system is very weird..
it really comes down to who can lie the best, its pretty sad.
