For context, also from Wikipedia >For 2012, the US Department of Justice reported a 93% conviction rate. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conviction_rate https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conviction_rate I agree the high rate is troubling. We'd need to find a good middle ground. Too low and it suggests prosecutors are bringing spurious cases. Too high and it means difficult cases are likely getting dropped or the process is just for show.
