In Malaysia legal system, a defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty. Consider a null hypothesis, H0, that a defendant is innocent, and an alternative hypothesis, H1, that the defendant is guilty. A jury has two possible decisions: Convict the defendant (reject the null hypothesis) or do not convict the defendant (do not reject the null hypothesis). Explain the meanings of the risks of committing either a Type I or Type II error in this sample.
