Well I was talking about the system as whole, junior. And the plea deals do deprive the citizens of their right from a trial. Depending on the circumstances, the defendant's poverty level, and the competency of his/ her lawyer, a plea deal can coerce innocent people to accept the deal. With that said, our system would crumble without it so essentially plea dealing is a neccesary evil.

You were countering my argument which wasn't about the system as a whole.

So what you're saying is they have a choice? Tell me how that's a bad thing. If they make a bad choice that's on them. Don't tell me how it's not fair when you had the ability to change it.
