Marc Kadella Legal Mysteries Vol 1-6 Quotes

“An Alford plea is one in which the defendant maintains his innocence but admits there is sufficient evidence to support a conviction. It is usually offered as a way to obtain a reasonable plea bargain with a recalcitrant defendant. It is also normally coupled with a threat of more dire consequences if the defendant rejects it.”
― Dennis Carstens, Marc Kadella Legal Mysteries Vol 1-6
