Summary
Normally when it comes to a judicial decision, the accused enjoys the benefit of the doubt - »in dubio pro reo«. However, the scope of this rule of lenity is still not fully determined, especially where the court applies law that requires predicting future events or making estimates. Anna Berger points out in her study that »pro reo«, it is not always the correct answer in every case of judicial uncertainty.
