I frankly would love to go before an American Jury if I were guilty and would be scared to death if innocent.

Guilty will tend to chose the tactics which are the most advantageous. The innocent will stick to the truth at their peril.

But sometimes the innocent lie to win. I knew one cynical guy who when faced with the prosecution based on the false witness, instead of trying to prove the truth, he just produced another false counter-witness. And it worked!

I always choose my friends for their willingness to commit perjury for me.
