While we’re at it, let’s ban “guilty” and “innocent” too. They’re real prejudicial to the jury. As in, “My client is innocent” or “I urge you to find the defendent guilty.”

Can you imagine? “You have a woman who’s been raped and she has to say that she had sexual intercourse with the man...”

The woman has “sexual intercourse” with her husband. That’s not what she had with her rapist.
