I’m sure you have statistics to back up your third point, and wouldn’t make such an extraordinary claim without the evidence to back it up… Care to provide?
Not sure why you’re being down voted, it’s a fair question, and I don’t have a specific study to link to.
I just have anecdotes from working with criminals, and game theory.
If something will add X% to your time in prison, but has a Y% chance of preventing you from being convicted in the first place, there are numbers where it makes sense to risk it.
Granted, it’s much more likely in a single-victim sex-crime scenario than a fraud case that leaves behind kilometer-long paper trails

I’m no expert, but I would think that you are massively oversimplifying the situation there…
