Oh, yes, they do. There are thousands of people in jail who pled guilty while they weren't, just because the state attorney was going to ask for the death penalty or life in prison if they went to trial, and offered them a few years in jail if they didn't fight it. It's not about how guilty you are, but how guilty they can make you look in front of a jury.
