There
are many reasons why a person may plead guilty. The innocence project
has been showing that people have been pleading guilty who were in fact
innocent and proven so by DNA. Convictions of innocent citizens frequently results from false identification and/or lab
corruption. This is an article written by a judge that details the dangers
of innocent people who plead guilty.
As
a criminal defense lawyer, it is important to protect citizen’s rights.
Among the defense lawyer’s highest callings is to ensure the protection of the
presumption of innocence, fighting for justice and not allowing the
state to steam roll over rights.
