Not how it works. They are innocent until proven beyond a reasonable doubt, that they are guilty. Not having a recording doesn’t make them guilty. The recording itself though, probably would.
But that isn’t the case here. The FAA is very clear, you must have the documents or you are in the wrong. That is it. You are only innocent by having the documents. To pass off a plane are good but not have its documents very clearly puts them guilty. There is no gray area here. The FAA and NTSB are very clear about this and who is at fault. When planes change hands or get work done, everything must be documented or it never happened. To then sell a plane and claim it was up to any spec, but without it being documented, then it isn’t up to spec.
The only way to prove they are innocent is to have those documents. The documents were audited, they didn’t have them, so they are being charged. They have been shown beyond any reasonable doubt that they did not have the required documents, otherwise there would have been no charges. The only way to prove their innocents is to show the documents that they failed to show in the audit, that they didn’t have, that lead to the charges. The reasonable doubt was already established when they failed the audit.
People who say “innocent until proven guilty” have never had to work in a regulated industry. You have to have all your licenses and documentation available for inspection at all times.
Even barbers and restaurants have these requirements. No, you can’t just say “it’s around here somewhere”. You need to know where it is.
Same with daycare. When we were looking up daycare centers they all had issues on the dcfs website. Almost all of them were for the same paperwork issues.
So if you don’t have any records then you can’t prove it was done properly and the assumption should be on the fault of Boeing.

The default assumption is that they didn’t do something, and there’s no evidence that they did the thing.
They are guilty of not keeping aircraft maintenance records for one year, which is the law.
The doubt is sounding quite reasonable.
