Remember, they have to prove their case. They don't have 100% chance of winning. It works to their benefit also.
But blame your legislature for the laws, not the courts.

His maths sucks that's how he got 8%.
There is a HUGE difference in pleading guilty to get 4 years and being proven guilty to get 25 years. I think what you missed is that batts is saying this discrepancy is ludicrous.
