My question involves criminal law for the state of: OR
This is going to be a weird question. Say a prosecutor offers you a plea to eliminate major charges you did not actually commit (on basis of lack of 'factual' evidence), to the remaining lesser charges you did actually commit, and you accept because you just want to get the case over with, you'd likely achieve the exact same outcome at trial, and you don't have the money for trial. And later in your life this plea deal starts haunting you socially and professionally, because people are apt to believe that you did actually commit the major crimes and just got a good deal to not have to accept guilt for them. Is there any way to petition a prosecutor/court to reopen your case on the major charges that were dismissed, so that you can actually fight them at trial and get the more confirmatory not guilty verdict, if you and a lawyer are positive you can win with the exculpatory evidence that you have? Socially, I understand not guilty still does not mean innocent, but its a lot better disposition than dismissed through a plea, right? This is also a situation where it would be impossible to obtain a certificate of factual innocent because there was too much circumstantial evidence to suggest the crime could have been committed based on the accusers allegations.
