Of course you don't. You can prove someone guilty of planning a terrorist attack when it's still in preperation, by finding them with plans, or hardware. Just like you can catch a shoplifter after they fill their pockets but before they've run off. The presumption of innocence doesn't make prevention in the least bit harder.
