Supporting evidence

  • Timothy Lynch. "The Case Against Plea Bargaining". Cato Institute. Fall 2003 - "[A] defense of plea bargaining repeatedly returns to the idea that criminal defendants have the 'right to make a contract,'as in other free-trade situations. But plea bargaining is not free trade. It is a forced association. Once a person has been charged with a crime, he does not have the option of walking away from the state."
