    The Supreme Court ruled that while trial courts have discretion to evaluate evidence, this discretion is superseded by the requirement that a defendant's guilt must be proven beyond reasonable doubt. The law presumes a defendant is innocent until credible evidence demonstrates otherwise, as was the case in People v. Escalente in 1994.

    The rule on appreciation of evidence by the trial court must yield to

    the superior and immutable rule that the guilt of the accused must
    be proved beyond reasonable doubt, because the law presumes that
    an accused is innocent and this presumption must prevail unless
    overturned by competent and credible evidence (People v. Escalente, 238 SCRA
    504 [1994]).
