I’m not sure what conclusion we should draw from that isolated fact. It can mean that people are convicted on too weak evidence, and it can mean that people are only put on trial when the evidence already is very strong.

I think we can look at the plea bargain rates and assume that most people do not have the resources to stand trial, and thus plea out whether or not the charges against them are valid.
