Nope.

That is wrong! If the state brings false charges, charges that are not proved, you should get your money back and be made whole.

So the alternative is to not get an attorney if you will end up broke after being found innocent, correct?

You obviously have no clue how the justice system works for you to make a statement like that. Did OJ get his legal fees paid back to him by California.

Furthermore, just because the DA brings charges against you, and you are lated aquitted, does not mean the charges were false. It means that he did not prove the case beyond a reasonable doubt.

Malicious prosecution is hard to charge and very very costly.
