It's a good way to keep it realistic. Still fun, and still the good clients get a better break than the bad clients, but they don't all have to be innocent.
shareYeah, I like seeing that too. On some "law & order" style legal dramas, the defence always wins, and that's not realistic. In reality, the prosecution often wins 90% of the time.

The prosecution doesn't "win" 90% of the time. The vast majority of cases get plea-bargained (because the courts are back-logged or for various political reasons,) which you might think is a "win" for the prosecution (a guilty plea), but in actuality, it's just what the name suggests--a bargain, or compromise.
shareThere's no point trying to muddle the issue, when it's so clear cut. From the perspective of the defendent, being convicted of a crime = being charged as guilty = losing. Acquittal = not guilty = winning. If we look at it from the perspective of the prosecution, the reverse is true.
I do, however, admit that a 90% conviction rate is not the case in the United States. I was thinking of Japan, where they have a conviction rate over 90%.
