You would have to ask your attorney about this. If you do not have an attorney you could contact my office for a free consultation.

I agree, you should talk to your attorney. They don't always offer lessers simply because they don't have a case. But if they can't prove the facts beyond a reasonable doubt, then a trial might be the right way to go. But remember, if you lose, there is a 3 year minimum mandatory prison sentence.
