Uh...the truth?

OK. From now on we'll just tell the criminals to tell the truth. After that, we'll know that everyone who pleads innocent must be.

Pay attention, will you?

Your question was, "And your plan to protect the innocent?" Not "And your plan to protect the criminals who lie about being innocent?"

You're missing the whole point, that being, the morality is assualted when the lawer his client is guilty, and uses subvversion to gain his/her freedom. The idea is, this isn't justice, it's a perversion of justice.

uh..I'm certainly not a lawyer, but what would be the correct course of action if a defense attorney knows his client is guilty, but also knows that the prosecutors don't have enough evidence, or have somehow skirted the rights of the accused?
