re: #405 RogueOne

The plea was to the charge of illegal entry.

Do you understand that people plea to lesser charges to avoid prosecution on larger charges?

My contention is there isn’t any evidence that anyone was trying to wiretap a federal office.

I don’t know what there was or wasn’t evidence for, and neither do you. But a plea bargain almost always means avoiding a larger charge, by pleading to a lesser one. That’s how it works.

Do you get how the 95% conviction rate works against your contention that if they had any chance of conviction on another charge they’d have taken him to trial?
