definition of acquitted

The figure of the acquitted is that of the one who has been redeemed and exonerated from a certain accusation that was applied to his person. In general, the term is used as a qualifying adjective in both judicial and religious spheres, although in the former it is more frequently as a result of accusations, trials or complaints about certain subjects. In this sense, in order for a person to be considered acquitted, they must undergo some type of trial that results in such a verdict.

Traditionally, the term absolved is related to the absolution granted by the Catholic religion to those who confess their sins before the priest. This ritual was and is traversed by the granting of Jesus' forgiveness for the sins of the human being, being mortal and imperfect. After confession, the priest or priest grants a corresponding penalty (usually some preaching or religious action) and ensures absolution and forgiveness of sins in the name of the Holy Trinity.

On the other hand, absolution is a figure that is present when a priest or representative of the Catholic Church grants this benefit on the deathbed to a person who has committed some type of crime and never asked for forgiveness or served his sentence. By himself.

However, the word is not only used in the religious sphere, but also in the judicial sphere. In this sense, it maintains the same meaning: acquitted is the person who has gone through a trial process and who, in the absence of evidence or in the presence of evidence in their favor, is redeemed from being judged as guilty before a fact or crime. The figure of acquittal can be applied in the judicial world to all types of acts, be they criminal, civil, political or of another type, as long as a person or association of people is accused of carrying it out.
