In adult, criminal, cases, the standard of guilt is proof beyond a reasonable doubt. This means that the state has the burden of proving that you committed the crime to a degree that a reasonable person doesn’t doubt the evidence. To get an arrest warrant, the State only needs to provide probable cause. Probable cause is a reasonable belief that a crime has occurred, supported by sufficient admissible evidence and circumstances. For a felony case to be moved to district court, the State must show that it is more likely than not that a crime occurred and that the defendant is the person who committed the crime.
