California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. A.B. (In re A.B.), G051283 (Cal. App. 2016):
342, 396.) "'A reasonable inference, however, "may not be based on suspicion alone, or on imagination, speculation, supposition, surmise, conjecture, or guess work. [] . . . A finding of fact must be an inference drawn from evidence rather than . . . a mere speculation as to probabilities without evidence."' [Citation.]" (People v. Cluff (2001) 87 Cal.App.4th 991, 1002.)
