Answer to Question 1

Plea bargaining is not the only way to arrive at a guilty plea. Many defendants plead guilty to
the charges against them even when no bargaining takes place. In an effort to secure a conviction, the prosecutor will start with the most serious charge and work down. That is, the prosecutor may overcharge as a first step in the bargaining process. This negotiation process is much like that of buying a used car at a dealership, in which the dealer usually starts with a ridiculously high price but is willing to negotiate. In the end, however, few buyers end up purchasing a car for its fair market value.
