I think most people plea guilty to murder if they are guilty.
You can think whatever you want. That’s not true though
I’m sure you have statistics to back up your opinion.
No, most rational people plead not guilty and are so advised by their lawyers unless they specifically have a good deal lined up.
Disagree. Most rational people who are charged with murder (and who did it) take the prosecution’s deal.
However, if none of us are presenting peer reviewed statistics, we are all just making assumptions.
