If a person did not commit a crime and if their strategic best choice is pleading guilty for the crime that has x% probability of receiving death penalty, it says something about the whole process.

Yes that scenario sucks. Death penalty itself should be trial only with a super high standard of evidence.

I think I am against it in general. I am undecided.
