So what happens when someone who's actually informed about sentencing guidelines tells a DA they don't believe the whole "if you don't plead you're facing ten million years in prison" thing?

You're the one who thinks you're informed, and that a judge would overrule the DA if they got out of hand, so I suggest you go find out.

I'm pretty much in the camp that the DA would fuck you up and the police and judge would all be in on it. Try telling a cop what the law is, especially if you're right...
