What if the answer is 0.01% of cases the innocent person pleads guilty because they’re can’t afford a lawyer?

That seems like a totally different problem to solve than your solution which is get rid of plea bargains.

0.01% would be a good number. And yes the fix for that probably is something else.

But uh, I never suggested getting rid of plea bargains. You might have confused me with someone else.
