Innocent men with their entire public careers to lose probably don't plead guilty without any consultation from an attorney. What possible reason would he plead guilty if he was innocent?

Innocent people do go to jail. Inncocent people do accept plea deals. "Mad Dog" prosecutors are as common as fleas on a pig....... Spending 12 months in jail is sometimes easier than spending $40K in legal bills. I personally know a guy that spent 18 months in federal min security prison because he took a $5/hr + commission telemarketing job. The people he worked for were crooks. The feds told him to turn state' witness or be prosecuted. He had no knowledge to give them and he listen to his court appointed attourney and pleaded guilty (he was a coward but lots of people are cowards). If Craig fighted the charges.....he would have spent months in the 24-hour news cycle. He knew this. He thought he could avoid this.... He was wrong.....

And let's say he was innocent -- then that suggests this Senator has horrendous judgment when it comes to important decisions, and he has incredibly strange behavior in public restrooms

You have not read the police report. The only strange piece of behavior was their feet touched. I've sat in bathroom stalls before. The ONLY way someone could touch my feet was if the other person's feet was purposefully moved all-the-way to the edge of the stall. My point being, unless this cop was a 7 foot tall basketball player, this cop moved his feet to the extreme edge of the stall. So if their feet touched, then the senator has plausible deniability that it was an accident. Also if the cop moved his feet to the extreme end of the stall.....he was obviously trying to entice an encounter. Craig never made a verbal overture for sex.....if he had, the cops would have had a strong case. Since he did not....the cops case was extremely flawed.
Like I said. I don't like Craig.. [censored] him...
