Bit of a technicality AMFM but I have served on a jury recently. Burden of proof is no longer 'beyond reasonable doubt' but is 'sure'. We were told that 'sure that the defendant was guilty' was more readily understood by most people than that the defendant was guilty 'beyond reasonable doubt'. The level of proof is not supposed to have changed.
