Alford and regular pleas move cases. Someone may enter an Alford plea who's not willing to enter a regular plea of guilty. Either way the sentence is the same. There may be difficulties for the prosecutor with his evidence that he need not deal with because of the plea. It's not a "fake" plea though. The CJ system is a blunt instrument and the perfect result can be elusive.
My bottom line analysis of the case would depend on much closer scrutiny on my part.
I am a dissident journalist, whose work has been published in dozens of daily newspapers, magazines, and journals in English, German, and Swedish, under my own name and many pseudonyms. While living in internal exile in New York, where I am whitelisted, I maintain NSU/The Wyatt Earp Journalism Bureau and some eight other blogs (some are distinctive but occasional venues, while others are mirrors), and also write for stout-hearted men such as Peter Brimelow and Jared Taylor.
