Have you ever dealt with the court of law? You always plead guilty. Always.
There are very, very few scenarios where you dont.

I was a juror on a trial and the guy involved clearly with several chicken nuggets short of a happy meal, like these two there was mountains of evidence against him including body cam footage from a police officer and he still pleaded not guilty.
By the way his defence essentially amounted to, there were other people in the area who also had criminal records, so maybe they did it.
