You know why that is true? Plea bargains. *facepalm*

O.K....then what is your soruce of your information for your facts?
Even a public defender can see if the state does not have enough evidence and challenge his client to go to trial and beat the case. 97% of these cases do not go to trial to save money and speed up the process of the courts. Otherwise the courts would be back logged even more than they are now as well as the prisons because jury convictions simply lead to more time than Plea Bargins.
And you cant even respond to how Diazs history han any effect on the outcome of his probation.
