What is one word for someone against whom initially there were some charges of wrongdoing but later is freed of all such charges or charges dropped against them formally or by a court? Thanks in advance.
Edit 1: I think I'm looking for opposite/antonym of indict, if that helps.
Best Answer
You can use any of these words: acquit, absolve, exonerate, exculpate and vindicate.
While it's alright to ask these questions in a question-answer forum, you would have your answers much faster if you just search the internet for antonym/synonym of the word. There are many websites that already have a list of synonyms and antonyms.
Cheers!
