I wonder whether the legal system considers “making a true statement with the intent to deceive” perjury?
To some extent, wouldn’t this amount to most defenses when the accused is guilty? This seems like a bad idea, unfortunately.
You lost me. (Pleading “Not Guilty” when you are guilty isn’t perjury because it’s not under oath, but I don’t see what that has to do with “making a true statement with the intent to deceive”.)
Also, you only need the > at the beginning of each paragraph.
Generally, statements made in the defense would be made with the intent that people draw the conclusion that the defendant is, in fact, not guilty. A guilty defendant could then not legally testify at all.

Well, there’s a reason people plead the Fifth.
Y de nada.
