Paralegal here. An acquittal or a not-guilty verdict doesn't mean the defendant is innocent. Both just mean that the prosecution failed to meet the burden of proof required for a conviction. So a defendant may be acquitted or found not guilty, but that it doesn't mean they did not commit the alleged crime. Ask OJ Simpson.

Remember guys, if “acquitted” and ”not guilty” were truly the same thing then the term “acquitted” wouldn’t exist

It wasn’t even a jury trial, because the defense messed with 2 separate juries, resulting in a bench trial.

If he was aquitted means hes innocent. Not guilty means not guilty. Acquitted means they couldnt finish the trial

Acquitted don’t mean he’s guilty either. Allegations can’t ruin a future of a person for something that may not be true

There is no such thing as being proven innocent. When they say acquitted, they mean the prosecution failed to meet the standard to get a conviction.
