So what do you do if you think you're innocent? You go to trial if you are actually factually innocent, and you are a millionaire with a bunch of expensive lawyers and a large publicity apparatus and network of friends. Aaron Swartz's problem was that he was NOT factually innocent of all the charges considered in that case. His lawyers were aware of that, and that constrained their range of options. People who keep their behavior innocent have more options.
