Whats 100% sure? A jury convicts on the basis of beyond reasonable doubt. If there is doubt a not guilty verdict is returned. All people found guilty were, I think, what you would call 100%. Unless of course you're trying to introduce into british law varying degrees of guilt. A bit guilty, quite guilty, guilty and definately guilty. It's a novel idea!

sally clark & angela canning were found guilty of "serial killings". You would like both to have been executed? Nice one!
