exoneration
意味: The official clearing of someone from blame, guilt, or a criminal charge; the formal acknowledgement that a person was not at fault.
Exoneration is stronger and more formal than vindication. It typically implies an official or authoritative declaration of innocence, often after a formal investigation, trial, or inquiry. It is frequently used in legal contexts, particularly in relation to wrongful convictions overturned by new evidence such as DNA testing. Common collocations include 'complete exoneration,' 'seek exoneration,' 'posthumous exoneration,' and 'the exoneration of.'
