"Everyone in the jury thought the defendant was guilty before the trial even started. This violates the presumption of innocence." This is best classified as:

A An appeal to authority
B A valid observation about procedural fairness
C A straw man
D Circular reasoning

✓ Correct Answer: Option B

The presumption of innocence is a fundamental legal principle. Pre-trial bias in a jury is a genuine procedural concern, not a fallacy.
