Concern at low rate of criminal trial success

"The Law Society of WA says statistics revealing that less than half of all serious criminal trials last financial year resulted in convictions raise serious concerns about public prosecutors."

This is not an assumption, it's a statement based on my experiences. Nowhere in my post did I make any assumptions. Perhaps you should take a little time to read the post before replying, particularly with you being a moderator.
