Im also curious how much the "celebrity factor" actually plays into this. Our legal system does not cater to justice, it caters to money. If you have money, you don't get the type of penalties that a poor person would get for the same crimes. High powered lawyers can spend much more time and effort, along with often just being plain better than say a court appointed lawyer. The only way this doesn't happen is if the prosecution has a slam dunk case -- even then, money can work our plea deals.
