- The law states 'a person is innocent until proven guilty' so unless you can prove they are guilty of an act then there is nothing you can do. If this is personal and not a crime then it is better to walk away from such a person rather than to waste your energy on trying to get them to admit they are innocent. Often people who lie or are deceitful will protect themselves by appearing innocent even though they know they are not.
