    He didn’t even kill. He’s innocent.

      He’s innocent until proven guilty. But there does seem to be a strong case that he did kill him.

        Impossible. Luigi and I were white water rafting in Idaho on the day of the murder. Luigi and I love white water rafting.

          Nah, you were with his brother, Mario. It’s easy to mistake the two. I was with Luigi, he was vacationing in Denmark with me.

            No no no. You see, you couldn’t have been with Luigi because he and I were horseback riding in Montana at that time.

        If so, why is he pleading innocent?

          He pled not guilty. You don’t plead innocence in court.

          He has to prove that he is not guilty of the case brought by the prosecution. That’s what not guilty means. He only has to disprove the specifics of the case brought against him.

          Its the procetutor’s job to prove, it is the defendant’s job to disprove.

          Pleading not guilty is the right choice. Either his lawyers think he’s not guilty, and this plea lets them beat the charges, or he is guilty and this plea delays the inevitable.

          If he pled guilty that would skip the main part of the trial and go straight to sentencing. Pleading guilty is rarely a good idea unless you are making a deal for a reduced sentence.

            The prosecution has to prove. The defense only needs to introduce reasonable doubt. Not that these are the sort of fine points that will matter when the show trial starts.

            It’s all just game theory. It’s a 2x2 grid of (actually guilty, actually not guilty) and (plea guilty, plea not guilty). You add up the risks and rewards for each box and usually not guilty is the better choice
