Actually it seems most cases are plea bargains and do not involve any kind of trial. At least from what I have read.
And recall what a circus the Casey Anthony case was? That was an opportunity for lawyers to make names for themselves on both sides. Often are popularity contests with the jurors. Or OJ Simpson. Both instances where the prosecutors could not prove their cases beyond a reasonable doubt. They both seemed to be the right outcomes for these trials at what was presented by both sides. Probably not the right as far as their actual guilt but the jurors have to go on what their lawyers presented to them under the stare of the Judge.
