La asimilación de la "duda razonable" al proceso penal español como estándar de prueba reporta grandes beneficios además de que encuentra un acomodo más garantista del que tiene en su ambiente jurídico originario, en los sistemas de common law Esto, debido a la obligación de jueces y jurados de motivar en la sentencia o el veredicto ese particular aspecto. Con ello, por un lado se legitima la decisión jurisdiccional en la medida en que sólo una duda bien razonada acredita ser una "duda razonable". Por otro, porque sólo cabe el control (procesal y extraprocesal) de lo público o de lo publicado, no de lo que se enclaustra en el recinto mental del juzgador
Assimilating “reasonable doubt” into the Spanish criminal procedure as a standard of proof is highly beneficial and, in addition, it finds a support which is more respectful with due process requirements than that which it is in its original legal scope, common-law systems. This is so, as a result of the judges' and juries' obligation to justify this specific aspect in their opinions or verdicts. By doing so, on the one hand, the court decision is legitimized in the sense that only a well reasoned doubt is recognized as a “reasonable doubt”. On the other hand, control (procedural and extra-procedural) is only possible in the case of what is public or what has been published, and not in the case of what remains within the minds of those who judge.
