How could you possibly "gather" that?
There most certainly IS a big difference between actually being innocent and not being proved guilty. When his whole case rested on the credibility of McNamee, making 12 people have "reasonable doubt" in McNamee's truthfulness is not even close to those same people actually believing Clemens was innocent.
But, apart from the rules of criminal court, the preponderance of evidence (the standard in civil court) would certainly point toward Clemen's guilt, IMO.
