Do you agree with plea bargaining?
In the U.S criminal justice system, defendants can take a plea deal. Lets say someone was charged with 1st degree murder, to avoid a trial the DA can drop it down to a lesser degree of murder which carries a lighter sentence. This is in exchange for a not guilty plea + no trial.
Do you agree with this practice? Or do you not? If you see it as unethical by chance, explain why.
