The benefits of making a deal? Bait (plea deal) is used to catch bigger fish?   How many bigger fish can we catch if someone talks to minimize their punishment, not forgiving their crimes? How big is the objective fish or school of fish your going after? How much are, we the people willing to pay to catch, Clintons, obama, the bush families, Pelosi and the list goes on? Can we the people, trust the game warden to impose the proper pain for the crimes?
