No. It is not believed that they committed the crime. At least not by the court. The prosecutor presumably always believes that. The defense presumably believes the opposite.
It is believed that there is enough evidence, assuming none of the evidence gets disproven or thrown out at or before the trial, for there to potentially be a guilty verdict.
