Northern can just take his guilty plea and throw himself at the Court when he eventually gets caught for having 150 sick cats in his house.

Do you disagree with the premise that a person can plead guilty, save lawyer fees and gain benefit during sentencing?
There are certain times, yes. But that is not your call to make for any defendant.
Do you have any idea how many defendants get pressured into taking a plea rather than risk the worst before they have even seen the State's evidence. It is not the Defendant's job to prove their innocence, it is the State's burden of proof.
But if it makes you feel better the vast majority of those that feel pressured to plea guilty are indigent and / or minorities.
Let me know when you have reviewed the data and filed your thesis.
Listen, Hunter f'd up. Like stupid f'd up. But it seems the vast majority of it was substance abuse related. He'll have to do the time now. Hopefully, it can help him from continue his path away from Crack.
I have plenty of friends that are dumb enough to have concealed weapons permits and get hammered when they partied.......You know what criminal level that is in Iowa?

Your written words. You clearly think most criminal defendants should roll over.
So the option is plead to the charges = 100% conviction rate
Take it to trial = feds convict 95% or so
It’s a Hobson’s choice at best.
What were you implying then? I have gotten numerous innocent people off. Were they tempted by an offer b/c they could put it all away. But the REALLY strong ones say, fuk it, I didn't do it and I'm not going to be buried someday knowing that I confessed to something I didn't do. That is their right. And that is when the burden for defense counsel is transferred from client. Build the best case you can. Call out bullshit police reports that don't correspond with video evidence. Calling out LEO for shutting off their badge cameras in the middle of an incident.
I'm not ripping all LEO and Prosecutors, as there some really good ones. But that is role of the barrister to hold their feet to the fire. Juries do not like when they have felt they have lied to either by witnesses or the prosecutor.
Well, that's dumb as hell but par for your course. Could you tell us how many times someone pleads guilty without a deal on the table?
St. Louis Hawk indicated that you can enforce gun laws without the expense of a trial.
No one is forcing a person to go to trial.
What sentence do you think is appropriate for Hunter's crime of lying about not being an addict on a form?
Holy hell...that's the best you can do? Ok...yeah, I'm a "giant crybaby" whatever that means but, FTR, I'm not interested no matter how cute you think I am.
And you're a full-of-shit liar. Glenn Beck is closer to the middle of the road than you.
HORT after the Trump verdict: lots of dunking on Republicans.
