Read my post 18.Not everyone that accepts a plea bargain is necessarily guilty. Has it occurred to you that he might just think probation is better than 6-10 years if found guilty? I have never reasoned why plea bargains give such lighter punishment over a jury conviction. It just makes it too convenient to cop a plea and walk rather than prove a case and incarcerate the guy.

If it were me and I were innocent I would not plead guilty no matter what.
In addition to whatever garbage sentence he gets he'll have to register as a sex offender. That is not something to be considered lightly.
