A more thorough explanation: “To plead to the facts” refers to a legal term where a defendant in a criminal case admits or accepts the truth of the facts presented by the prosecution. This admission may be made as part of a plea agreement or during a court hearing. By pleading to the facts, the defendant is essentially agreeing that the evidence presented by the prosecution is accurate and can be used against them in the case.
Example: The defendant decided to plead guilty to the facts presented by the prosecution in order to expedite the court proceedings.
