The text states that fetuses are presumed to be innocent because they are not moral agents, meaning they do not have the ability to make moral choices or decisions. Therefore, they cannot be held morally responsible for any actions or harm caused. The fact that they cannot suffer or cause harm also supports this presumption of innocence, but it is ultimately because they are not moral agents that they are considered innocent.
