However there are usually many other factors that contributed them to do so (including but not limited to.) They can not afford a good defense. An incompetent defense The embarrassment of a trial (probably the Senators reason, or perhaps he was guilty Coercion and/or false promises by the DA, the defense attorney and/or the police officer. Clients mental capabilities, incompetence ect. The stresses involved in a trial The consequences of a guilty verdict, vs what was better offered if they plead out. Nonetheless, how can a U.S. Senator make that mistake of pleading guilty, if he is in fact innocent? This is a man that makes crucial votes in our U.S. Capital? Folks, if America wants to survive, I believe all political parties need an ‘ethics’ cleansing. It is wrong for one political party to just wink and nod at the lies, sins and/or corruptions of its own leaders; While only pointing their fingers at the 'other' party.
