      I'm not sure you understand how a courtroom works. If the prosecution doesn't have any evidence of a crime, taking the stand will ONLY hurt you. It's like if you are told "Hey, if you don't play the lottery I'll give you 500 million dollars." and you play it anyway...Nobody would do that.

      @@Subxenox15 Advice from a lawyer:
      "When should a defendant testify in his own trial?
      Ideally, a defendant should testify when all the following factors exist:
      When he is innocent AND
      When he has no baggage in his background which can be used to destroy him on cross-examination AND
      When he is intelligent and articulate enough not to be tripped up by unscrupulous cross-examination tactics AND
      When he is both presentable enough and courteous enough to make a favorable impression on the jury.
      You seldom have an ideal defendant, so you’re usually going to have a defendant testifying with fewer of these factors.
      Innocence is the key factor. Guilty defendants usually find a way to self-destruct on the witness stand."
