means, with respect to a particular offense, that a person:

(2)did not:
(A)commit;
(B)take part in; or
(C)plan, prepare for, or participate in the planning or
preparation of;
any other criminal act in connection with that offense.
The mere fact that the trier of fact acquitted or did not convict the

person is actually innocent.
