The Plea Bargain Controversy
You will post on the issue of why the plea bargain creates such controversy for police and civil libertarians. It seems ironic that groups representing both conservative perspectives and liberal ideologies would be in agreement on their dislike of plea bargains. In your words, do plea bargains sacrifice too many defendant rights, or are too many benefits offered to (potentially) guilty suspects? Conversely, how might plea bargains offer the justice system an easier method by which to alleviate congestion on packed court dockets? Provide at least one citation from the Peak (2015) text or one of the recommended resources in your response.
